The wave has two sections which usually link up, the outside and... the inside. The beach (and the entire atoll) are private (govt?) property. When the swell gets up and its of a certain direction there is a lot of current running off the point.

Jails is one of the best surf spots in the maldives its along right with some very fast sections the water is hot and its not crowded. Why the name? It´s a former jail, now small military area.
