Melanda 2
Edit SpotAbout
It is remote, and one of the best waves on the south coast. Some locals, but most of the time empty.
Additional Info:
Make sure to paddle out at cove as this spot can hold size and the cove is a protected safe paddle out. It is a heavy wave that is fast and powerful. It breaks onto the cliffs, but you get a long ride before you make it there.
