Cayes Jacmel surf guide

Surf: Shallow left reef that works all tide and offers good peaky takeoffs, fast walls and open faces for cutbacks. An option to surf at the beginning of a 7 seconds period Caribbean Sea when surf is more chaotic. By day two, as clean, organized swell lines appear, head to the neighbouring reefs E and W. Directions: Access from a scrapyard carpark just before Cayes Jacmel. Or walk E to the spot from the roadside. Environment: Driving W from Jacmel this is the first good left visible from the roadside. But there are many shallow reefs in the area breaking in cobalt and indigo water that are worth checking.
