Sans Souci Bay Surf Guide

Beach Break, as it's more often called, is like the Duranbah of Trinidad. It's more of a right when it's big but there is a good left to this wave, too. It wedges up on both the left and right and goes into a nice bowl. It will sometimes close out on the inside in half a foot of water. On the north end of this beach there is also good left when the sandbars are in form.
