I went in with a complete wetsuit but I didn't needed it. After about half an hour I had to get out along with the rafts because it was becoming horrible.

I think the best time to go is between October and November. Very little Punta Caballas 1997 Franco Canziani It looks pretty much like Tanaka, with lots of wind but often gusty. Waves are of medium size, they are good to surf when the sea gets big.
