The Box Surf Guide
The Box is a thick, below sea level right-breaking mutant tube that is only for the very best, committed surfers. The Box throws out over hard flat rocks and is totally unforgiving.

Surfers who can ride this place love it, and feel a certain ownership over it. As always, a humility and respect go a long way.

Crowded when its on.

Getting crushed on the reef.
