Playa Santana, March 6

Playa Santana was the place to be today. I’ll give it 3 Chile Peppers on  a scale of 1 to 5. Fun tubes, but the offshore winds were a little strong. With the waves this small and windy, this beach typically offers up the best conditions. Water is a tad chilly, it felt nice with [...]
