South of the village beachbreak, the river mouth at Las Lisas builds a left sandbar that gives longer, more open walls than the steep shorebreak found along most of this coast. A S swell lines it up best, and the NE morning wind keeps it clean until the sea breeze comes in. Rips off the mouth can spoil a good day. The long drive keeps the lineup close to empty.
