Almost 40 years ago, Philippe Demarsan chose Panama as his paradise and stayed there to live, and there he took many photographs.

First it filled rolls and rolls of wonderful images and then gigabytes and terabytes of hard drives.

Playa Venao was one of the many beaches he photographed. Below are some snapshots that do justice to the talk about perfect waves breaking there.

Order is one of the main characteristics of Venao; while in other beach breaks there are 500 people catching waves at the same time, in Venao that does not happen.
There are people who are lucky enough to have a pool facing the sea and there are people who are luckier enough to take home the right of the series on a perfect day in Venao.
The main peak is further over here, but waves are also breaking further over there.
In a world where beaches are feared to be overcrowded, there are still perfect right-handers that go away on their own.
And there are also perfect lefts that go away on their own.
Venao gets solid and with tube sections.
