Namotu Left Surf Guide

This lefthander is a fun, playful wave suitable to most surfers' abilities - rather short and sometimes sectiony, but well worth it. Located across the channel from Wilkes Pass, of course, when the swell gets big, this wave gets much heavier, but it is still nothing like Cloudbreak or Restaurants.
