  • A pretty decent day at Playa Langosta. Photo is actually taken 1/10/05.
  • Double Overhead in front of Barcelo hotel. Taken by Theresa Dobbs. Very strong and fast waves. Take offs are a bit tricky. Beware or the impact zone. Reef and rocks are nasty. Rivermouth is only place to exit. Taken 07/15/05 during a swell.
