To get back up scramble on the rocks..gets crazy.. DistanceWeek-end trip WalkLong walk (>30 mn) Easy to find?Hard to find Public access?Private access Special access4x4 |

Additional Information
Take off, tuck in and hope to make it out. The heaviest wave ive ever surfed, kind of like a minni shark island i think. Got lots of scars from there. Dont get washed into the cave below the cliff or youre fucked..
Atmosphere
Scary spot..rockboils and kelp everywhere, cold water..uninviting but the best rides ever..if you make it..
General
Crazy. Me and a few mates know of it, dont think anyone else has been here cause so isolated but if you can find it anyone welcome. Beginners stay away.
