Access
Either paddle from the beach, jump off the top left corner of the old ladies baths (not the main baths) or walk out to where the pump for the baths has created a small river in the rocks and you can jump off there (but not if its too big).

Additional Information
Line yourself up using your surroundings so that you find that perfect spot and then stay there. The wave always breaks in the same spot. When surfing stay close to the pocket for speed and dont be afraid to lay down some heavy carves! Make sure to flick off before you hit the rocks though. If you get washed over them its not much fun. I know from experience.

Atmosphere
Usually pretty fat and only a short ride. But when it gets good, its really fun. Usually a pretty sucky takeoff and chance for a quick cover up and then after that a nice rippable wall.

General
Rarely surfed as most people just surf off the ladies which is about 50m north. But i often surf out there and wonder why people dont just paddle over! Such a fun wave. Always have a good surf when i paddle out there.
Respect the locals and wait your turn.
