Mysterious. Only ever seen a few guys using jet skis to tow in. Looks heavy from shore though.
Atmosphere
I'll probably get hunted down for putting this spot in. But everyone can see it from shore and guys are always talkin about the place, just thought I'd put it on the web and see what kind of comments it attracts.

Huge - The reef is know to locals as wurtulla reef it starts breaking when The Wurtulla stretch is about 2ft it is always double the size, ther is no way to paddle out there because of all the sharks and you have to cross over a shark net. if you wanted to toe into it and u fell off well good bye... its only about 6ft deep on a super high tide and the shark population is increasing!!!! the only person ever to bee seen out there is stupid people on boats and kayaks ( we did it on kayaks one day when it wasnt breaking and there was a huge skool of mackrell) and one kite surfer got owned out tere and took him 20 minutes to get going again.. so dont surf it and call it by its right name WURTULLA REEF who cares wat the marien people call it!!!!
