Buddha Beach is a unique surf spot, marked by its impressive 16-meter statue that stands out on the narrow rocky beach. Getting there can be a bit of a trek, but once you arrive, the scenery adds a distinctive vibe to your surf session. While it's not the easiest spot to navigate, it's worth checking out if you're looking for something different.

The surf at Buddha Beach is generally best when the swell comes from the NorthEast, but it can also handle swells from the East. It picks up swell sizes starting at about 1 foot (0.3 meters). The waves typically break over boulders and sand, providing both left and right breaks. The beach is better suited for beginners since there are options regardless of your skill level. For the best conditions, you'll want to surf when the winds are coming from the SouthWest and during low to high tides.

Keep in mind that the setup can sometimes be messy and there's often bad backwash, so it’s good to be aware of that when you're out there. The overall vibe is pretty chill, making it a decent spot for solo surfers looking to enjoy a more laid-back session.
