Club Med
Club Med breaks in front of the old Club Med resort on Ngor Island, producing heavy, hollow rights over a shallow reef. When pure N-NW swells arrive, the wave can barrel for 50 meters or more, drawing comparisons to more famous reef passes. The local crew is tight and the wave is unforgiving—know your limits before paddling out.
