Local Pigs - One Eye, apt name for a name thick with sharks!!! But the ones I came across were in the form of some local kooks who were full of it. Best check that now one is out before getting in!

Westbrook - Classic spot, some of the best waves I've surfed. Best during winter - before 9am while the landbreeze (W-NW)is blowing, can get super silky and smooth for brief periods as the wind swings to light onshore (NE). Doesn't handle strong SW wind - blows out easily, best on outgoing tide.
