- Localism
great place to surf, be aware that the locals are freindly but only if you are.
Atmosphere
Great atmosphere, all the locals know each other and get on well. Don't just come down here and go take up residence on the best peak on the beach and think you will get waves. Locals hate that with a passion, and you'll most likely come in to find your tyres slashed.
General
really good people with alot of talent.lots of shredding locals, both surfers and bodyboarders(this area has produced the likes of Mick Campbell, Grant Hudson, Darren O'Rafferty, Marcus Brabant, Eppo, Damien King, just to name a few).
