if your looking for the sets sit deeper or take the drop and wait for the photogs to smash you. park ur car at the headland, the parking signs got teared down.
Atmosphere
best swells are from the east and south east. too much south and the sets start to crumble. wind can be from west - south west and low tide the shelf eposes. give it a crack
General
novelty spot away from the bower kooks. when its good you can link set waves to the bower and piss on the kooks!!!!
