Additional Information

Once you reach the Rock outcropping paddle +-5m past it and hang on the inside. It is quite a steep takeoff and on springlows you should watchout for rocks.

Atmosphere

Always uncrowded and as such really relaxed. the locals are always friendly and willing to lend advice.

General

I love this spot because it has a nice steep takeoff which offers great initial speed allowing you to bottom turn hard, surf up the lip and smack the lip with an amazing ease. Great for those Aerial Entrepeneurs
