Spot guide
La Ocho, San Juan is an N-facing reef break in San Juan, Puerto Rico. It picks up swell from WNW and NW to E, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 36% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the S: light winds or S breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while N onshores chop it up.
