About this spot

Banana Point is a distinct advanced corner on the Aourir coast, separate from the Banana Beach K11/K12 area. It suits experienced surfers looking for a cleaner, more lined-up wave. The setup combines sandy patches with rocky sections, and the point shape gives useful protection from wind. In the right conditions it delivers a right-hander that peels along the rocks with long, technical sections.
