Surf Guide
A barreling left located on the west coast of Barbados. Very shallow with live fire coral and urchins so best to surf on the mid and higher tides. Needs a solid N or NNW swell to break but can be one of the best waves on the island when the swell and tide align. Can get crowded when it is good.
