Angel Island

Beach bums, potheads, and surfers unite here. Angel Island is one of the lowest islands in Pala. It has no large hills, little wildlife, and no major resorts. The way the coral reefs are arranged around the island create the best break in Pala, and it's not uncommon for fifteen foot waves to crash just fifty feet away from the shore. Although surfing can be seen all over the islands, with several different break points, Angel Island's southeastern tip experiences the biggest waves in the island change, which is why it has been dubbed Surfer's Point. People from all over the world come to Pala just to ride the waves at Angel Island.

Cabanas, bungalows, and vacation homes have sprung up all over the island as a result of the constant flow of surfers and tourists. Injuries, and even deaths, are fairly common because of the strength of the waves and the shallow coral beneath them, but the danger makes it even more exciting. At night, the island often becomes a party haven for tourists, and its not uncommon to see lights from beach raves or massive bonfires all over the beaches of the island.
