A 30m+ paddle towards a very small island which can be seen from Port Glaud (its close). The lefts break to the right and the point break lies to the left (while paddling).
Atmosphere
The lefts are fairly inconsistent. But at least check to see if its working. If not try the point break on the other side.
General
Good.
