 Informations supplémentaires

The Right:
Towin wave. Only breaks with a typhoon coming from Samoa (West swell) with a huge swell (20 ft). Discover and surf by Poto, Raimana Van Bastoler and Manoa Drollet. It's shallow. This break may not have a reputation like its big brother Teahupoo but it can get pretty dam knarly so only dare to surf it if you have experience on your side.

The Left:
Usually it's a left with S to SW swells accessible by paddle. You will be alone, all the kids stay at Paparaa beach-break. It's a big bowl with tube. Be careful at the end of the wave. The good point, if you are taken by the wave, you finish in deep water.

It's at par. - It was quite good. I have experienced this type of situation when I had a trip to Tahiti after reserving a stay in Tahiti Surf Beach Paradise.

- there's more than one outer reef at paparaa. think 2 or 3. not sure only seen the one directly outside the beach break working. wan't big enough only 2 meters, but had fun on the sets. Super safe deep water as long as you don't bungle the takeoff.

De Anonymous , 31-05-2007

Good break when on - Very small local crowd with a sick shallow right and down the line left. Saw one day in 18 during May 2007 when it was worth the paddle out the day after a dropping SW tow in swell hit, in the early morning.
