On its day it becomes a hectic heavy wave and has caused casualties. Very rippy but has awesome banks thats usually re-appear with a big hit of NE swell. Spits harder than any beachy for miles.
Atmosphere
Some great local surfers and boogers make it looks simple, but the challenging paddle and tricky sucky conditions and sections are hard to navigate for day trippers.
General
Not the most consistent place, but when the elements come together, it can ahng with the best of them.
