Dangers
- Rips / undertow

Additional Information
Quite shallow on high tide its about 1 metre deep.
On low tide the reef will be sticking out of the water, so its unsurfable on lowtide.
Very dangerous if you wipeout considering that the reef is sharp and it breaks onto a ledge.
Usually the safest time to surf here is on a 2-3 foot day.
Atmosphere
Very shallow, this spot is good, its a bit dangerous for inexperienced surfers.
