 Additional Information

Not the greatest spot around but does somehow more often attract a group of surfers to it, especially in winter. When theres enough swell there are a few different peaks to choose between Clifton 4th and 1st. This wave is straightforwars, doesnt get very long but can give a punch on bigger swell.

Atmosphere

Fickleness is a minus, though does surprise you often. Few crowds are a plus.
