What is the most crowed surf break in the world

out of those 5 pipeline

 

Other... My home break is the most crowded....

 

One year I counted 120+ surfers at Maria's in Rincon PR... imagine that. Locally in Jersey I've seen 40+ inbetween 2 jetties in Monmouth. That Blows!

 

I've seen over 50 sitting within 30 yards of the Loch Arbour jetty

 

Snapper Rocks in Queensland, Australia is easily the most crowded break in the world hands down.

 

some places can handle a crowd better than others- multiple take off spots, less critical sections, etc. pipeline is super critical and isn't very spread out.

 

Loch arbor is a disaster in summer......Maria's is a disaster too in winter unless there's some size, but still out of control.

 

"Pops" in Waikiki is crazy.

 

1st street jetty, VA Beach

 

Lowers... Hands down.

 

1st st VAB, or malibu is the most crowded ive seen. But I havent seen it all

 

How about New Jersey after Hurricane Bill...Disgusting.

 

Here is the report from Marias this am..

We have surf in the waist to chest high range with head high sets here in Rincon this morning. The super high tide is making most spots weird at the moment. Still plenty of waves, just wait for the right one. The problem is that 100 other people are waiting for that same right one too so there is several people on each wave.

Yay sounds like fun!

 

precisely... its comparing apples to oranges.

 

I think that video shows Rincon, Ca. a bit more crowded than Maria's in Rincon PR. But only by a little

 

agreed, many more people than any other break in the world, its a zoo there

 

Was at Loch Arbor today hoping to grab some of the 2 foot messy waves coming in. Most waves were 2-3 foot. Keep in mind this is January. When I arrived there was 15-20 people out. For mid winter slop! Luckily they all sat on the same break while I took the next break down to myself
