Breaking just 200 yards from Pitstops is Emerald Bay, a perfect, hollow left-hander that breaks best between head high to double or even triple overhead. Although fickle, when it's on, the wave is worth the wait. It barrels from start to finish with the main tube section found straight in front of two large pieces of reef that stick out of the water. The bigger it gets the hollower it get and the heavier it gets. Certainly one of the best waves in the area!
