James Misiak from United States
“I would certainly give the water Quality a minimum of 3 if not 4 star, I have always seen the bottom the and today, I saw the bottom and all the colorful jelly fish, sharks, and rays from my SUP. With a good swell as this week will be, I have to say the difficult level might be a 2, water entry and exit with the rocks and bits of reef can make havoc on a board or fins. Of course when there are no waves there are no waves. Crowds for sure, I had to yell at a few guys, a fellow SUPer hacked a surfer, and I reprimanded him.”
