- Sharks
checking the wave fromt he headland is very dispective as no-one is normally out. so 2-3ft can be doudle when you get out there. deceptive long paddle. Good A-frame peaks with a punchy take-off and hollow inside section .. very fast for 80m and then drops you into deep water. sometime has a hollow left on the take off. quite
Atmosphere
This spot is nick-named Erries.. due to the feeling that you are like shark bait in the harbour. keep catching waves to take your mind off the noahs. Returning fishing trailers gutting fish off the back do not help. as a surf it is a great option .. always uncrowded.

ULLADULLA BOMMIE - I'm a Yank who first surfed here in 1975. The right-hander was steep powerful & hollow. It breaks in deep water over a rock reef. Fishermen told me,"That's where the old sharks go to die. There's shark fins & bones scattered all along the bottom." I didn't see any sharks, but you know they were there! It's about a mile out off of Rennie's beach.

Not world class - Its not a 4 star wave, more like 2. A little right that can barrel.
It has numerous shells and coralline fossils in the adjacent cliffs, and iceberg dropstones in the rock platform.
I surfed a wave with a dolphin here once, who looked up at me from the water just below me as I rode the wave. Thought I was a bit weird to be out there, I think.
