Paunch surf guide

Surf: A 10-15min drive from town is the quality reefbreak of Paunch. The lefts start with a tubular section, before wrapping into a more workable wall and a bonus inside cover-up. A fun, rippable, rampy wave when small, it gets real sucky with a bigger swell. There is also the option of a few rights off the peak when everybody focuses on the lefts but they are a shadow of the lefts. Environment: Closest wave to town means it can get crowded and even the surf schools are seen around here. Same sharp reef as Dumpers make reef boots a necessity.
