Anyway, the waves were brilliant, and it was sunny and almost warm, as the offshore had eased off to barely tangible. The wind was about to turn now. For a while there was no wind at all, which turned the lefts at the central reef into something less gnarly but still very rip-able.

But it was clear that the show would soon be over, at least on this side of the peninsula. It was early afternoon now and the wind was slowly turning north-west and picking up. Time for me to change to the other side of the peninsula and go surfing myself. The swell was still big enough to make it around the cape and reach the breaks in the bay. Muni Capo was crowded as expected, so I choose the point further inside. Set waves were head-high here and had some power.

The slightly slabby nature of the break at the take-off zone made for some thrilling drop-ins – particularly on my longboard – but once one had survived that a long wall was on offer, speedy at the beginning but slowing down the more the wave wrapped around the point. Despite quite a few surfers out at this break I had my share of very fun rides.
