Actual name is Saxon. - If you know Arniston you would know this "point" is actually called Saxon or Beacon. You would also know this is famed as Great White breeding grounds. This is also, because of groundswell and current where all dead sea life washes up - whales dolphins etc. Keep the sport safe, dont surf here. Unless of course you regard yourself a shark-biscuit.
