Shipwreck (Robertsport)
Shipwreck takes its name from a rusting vessel that lies nearby, a reminder of Liberia's turbulent maritime history. The wave is a powerful left that breaks over a shallow reef, producing hollow, fast barrels when conditions align. It handles more size than some of the other Robertsport spots and is known for its consistency. Experts only when it gets serious.
