Q:
How big are the waves here
A:
Big and variable! Lots of locals surf and windsurf here. Not for the beginners!
Q:
Best time of day to watch the surfers?
A:
Well, if you want the sun totally behind you I would get there between 10am and 1pm. That way the sun is shining on the waves and brightens things up a bit for photos.

Q:
What are bathroom facilities like here? Are showers available? Is it toddler friendly?
A:
Sorry, we were there only briefly—just to see the green sea turtles so I did not use any of their restrooms or bathroom facilities.
Q:
Great posts on turtles! Best time of day to see them?
A:
Turtles are there all day long. They haul out onto the beach to rest. If you don’t see them, take another look at the boulders strewn all over- those are turtles!
