The northern side of the rocks works with a SW swell and a light offshore helps.
the southern side goes off with a strong NW swell pushed in by the cyclones however it can also be good with a SW swell.
Atmosphere
You can surf here 360 days of the year, only less than a 100days a year are good though.
General
Parking next to shop is for locals only.
if the car park is full, go park up the hill somewhere.
