Surf Garbage Heap

Garbage Heap - St. Marten Garbage Heap features a point break with both right and left waves, breaking over a sharp coral reef. The spot is located on the northeastern edge of St. Marten and is accessible via a 15-30 minute hike from the parking area at the garbage dump. The waves can be powerful, ordinary, or fun, depending on the conditions. This hidden gem offers a remote surfing experience amidst a stunning mountainous jungle backdrop. While the spot can attract a few surfers, it generally remains uncrowded, allowing for a more enjoyable session. The best conditions occur with swell from the north, east, or northeast, and favorable winds from the west to southeast. Be cautious of urchins in the water, and remember that the consistency of the waves can vary, so it's wise to check conditions before heading out.
