Pictures

  • This is a good spot: deep rock bottom, big waves and no crowd.. From this shot I can only saÿ,
  • A Second shot from El Zonte clearly shows that Rocks are everywhere, but at least then do not cut you like the ones you find in Punta Roca... This is again a great secondary spot.. (Comments by Rafael Telles)
  • This photo in El Zonte was taken some years ago (1992) during a big swell day.
