A hollow, fast, powerful left over shallow rocky reef north of Cloud 9 - a goofy-footer's dream reached only by pump boat.
Practical
Approx: Wannasurf pin (9 50.621'N 126 9.443'E, flagged 'approximate'); Surf-forecast places it at about 9.85N 126.15E. Starts working at 1-1.5 m and holds to 4 m+; E-NE swell with NW-SW wind; best low to mid tide on a rising tide (Wannasurf); Surf-forecast says it works at all tides with best wind WSW. Experienced surfers only. Access by boat from the end of the road past Cloud 9 - the boat point is mapped on OSM as 'Boats To Stimpy's and Rock Island Reef Break' (Wannasurf quoted about PHP 400 per person - verify locally). Hazards: rocks, locals, and very painful blue button jellyfish; bring water and food for a long session.
