Additional Information
Noetsie can get very good at times. Best enjoyed in summer with small to medium swell (anything between 2-5 foot.) Anything bigger at most times of the rest of the year and it doesnt break properly. (Picks up alot of swell here, so its always on!!) There are a few spots (reefbreaks and beachies) in the reserve which you dont have to look too hard to find. Down by the beach there is a righthander that peels into the rocky bay. Pretty straightforward wave.

General
Noetsie Beach and the reserve has beautiful, unspoiled surroundings. There are a few castles on the beach, build by some wealthy German years ago. (No idea why?)
