want waves to boogie board, they are a couple hundred yards away, to
the North or South. Waves vary by season, generally the waves are big
on the North side of the islands in the winter, and big on South side
in the summer. We are on the West side, so it depends greatly on the
direction of any current swells. Ask at a local surf shop.

are included. We try to have some beach towels for guests use, but you
may want to bring some of your own.
