The Playing Field: Playa Jobos, Isabela

Jobos is really a sweet Puerto Rican fresh fruit with just a little almond-like nut inside; in addition, it is actually among PR's main and best-known venues for surfing competitions and may be the de facto Surf Pueblo for the North Coast.

The '88 World Amateurs were held here, also it hosts many local contests annually, in addition to being home to the Toth and Graves' surf families. The primary wave breaks right close to the tiny rock headland at the east end of the beach and pinwheels in to the broad, sandy bay. It actually looks kinda such as a pointbreak 'cause it's so down-the-line and racy, but like every other wave in Puerto Rico, it's rather a reefbreak.

Locals remove as near to the rock as you can, rendering it problematic for people to actually get yourself a wave. But fortuitously, if you are patient and show respect -- and stick to your lineups -- you will not be disappointed.

Jobos can be among PR's most consistently rideable waves, since it accumulates all types of north swell and is significantly protected from the incessant tradewinds by the rock headland. Gleam left that breaks in the center of the beach and assorted other scattered mediocre peaks as you head west around
