It's directly opposite Scar Reef.
Atmosphere
Breaks both left and right, with the left hollower and longer. Gets very hollow and barrels in the right conditions. Usually about half the size of Scar Reef, so needs a bit of swell.
General
Good alternate, not as big and gnarly as Scar, but still gets very shallow.
