Really fun and consistent break. Fun locals, bring the whole family.

It goes off when it is good. But if word gets around, it can get crowded.

Directions - Just before Lake Tabourie turn left when going south into Caravan Park Entrance Road and then turn left into small carparking area. It is just over the dune. This is a great spot most people drive past without knowing it is there.
