Jerseys - El Tico Surf Spot Guide, UK El Tico in Jersey's St Ouen's Bay delivers classic beach break waves that peel along a stunning 5 kilometer stretch of sand, offering fun, forgiving rights and lefts for surfers chasing reliable Channel Island swells. The sandy bottom makes it approachable yet capable of holding solid shape […]
The reef looks a lot worse than it actually is. The right handers are normally the better shaped side to the wave. Choose a neap tide, works best on a 2 metre swell, try the low water bowl if you feel daring.
critical take off point, square tube, a thin pintail gun should set you in good stead. put it this way top southafrican surfer gary ablet who just returned from 3 months in WA and 6 months in indo got 3 tubes on 1 wave and ended by smashing his 7"6 pin on the gnarly plemont reef, and sed "thats the best tube of my life,im off home".
Fineprice was way better than waitrose or marks & sparks or whatever that new joint is. The floor in fine price was red and had bits of glitter in it. RIP fine price.
Short well shaped wave, can be a good choice when other areas are crowded, only works on spring tides
You can only surf it,if its a 34ft tide +, and at high tide. It will work if the most consistent spots (watersplash, secrets) are 3-4ft +.Surf to the right of the slipway.
Needs a deep low pressure, normally only works in southerly gale conditions, powerful wave, short but excellent wave when it works. only works on about a 12 days of the year on a spring low water
The reef consists of a left and right that break only during high tide over the rocky outcrop in the middle of Vazon bay. The left starts working on a lower tide and consists of a fast ledgy takeoff right next to the infamous "nipple rock" followed by a disappointing slow inside section. On a larger spring tide the right starts to produce equally fast ledgy takeoffs followed by a longer inside wall. Generally a fun wave which can occasionally produce some really good and hollow waves when big. As with most of the spots at Vazon it is not as exposed to swell or winds as spots like perelle and therefore can be a good place to head when conditions aren't clean.
I usually park on the pier, and paddle out from there, which saves your arms when its working well. Try to remember to bring a spare board as it can pack a punch! On its day can be the best beachie barrel on the Island. I love it, no one seems to know about it or bother with it so even if it aint that great, its still better than battling it out with the locals at st ouens. Can be a good vibe in the summer if it works cause the beach is packed and people stand on the shore line cheering and stuff. Its pretty cool
