Roca Puta | Basque Country
Big wave spot in northern Spain!
Dangerous surf spot for experienced big-wave surfers only. When a big swell arrived the Pais Vasco - Roca Puta is on. This righthander is one of the most renowned big-wave spot in europe. Also Laird Hamilton surfing this well known surf spot situated between Zarrautz and Orrua. The Basques locals are friendly, but will accept only experienced surfers!
