Surf: On the southwest-facing coast, Loberia is another Galapagos gem that can hold epic barrels on its day. From the A-frame peak, it's thick and fast, pitching over a shallow, spiky lava reef and will rifle off both ways, depending on what flavour of S groundswell is hitting. It's not always barreling with plenty of smaller, high performance days and the left point opposite the right can be a fun, ripable wall. NW swell can wrap in, but won't line it up like a good SW. Directions: 10min cab from town. Environment: Scores a 6 for consistency and 5 for crowds. Aggressive male sea lions will bite surfers that get too close to the females and pups, especially during mating season. Loberia also has a few nasty rocks sticking up out of the line-up. 10min cab from town.
