does not break anymore - before the sand built up on the outside (about 5 years ago) this wave would break on massive swells only. It hasnt broken properly in at least 3 years that i know of.When it did break the main hazards were the extremely dirty water from the runoff from bad weather, have also seen very aggresive bull sharks there, but the main problem is getting run over by boats.
