When you say overhead what are talking about 6-7 ft? Post pics if you have em...

Yeah I know, I'm surprised youre the first that said this. Thing is, the waves were so good every day I didn't want to spend surfing time taking pictures. The break was also very, very far out for a beach break, it felt like paddling to a reef. If you got caught inside by a set (or three) it could be a verrrry long paddle out.
The locals are unbelievably friendly, and there are so many waves that it doesn't even matter.
I hate saying waves are a certain height in feet because everyone has a different definition, but this is a photo from a day we were there;
This is the blog post from that day if you want to get a better feel for what waves are like at Playa Guiones (the break)

That site has a daily surf report if you're interested. It's almost painful to look at, the waves are so consistent it makes me sick!
