Additional Information
There are usually several banks, so pick a good one that is less populated - swap around when one gets a bit more attention. If you have the time wait further out for the bomb sets. (Every three or four sets usually).
Atmosphere
Pretty lay back surfing - no localism or agro for the most part. A lot of beginners ride here but they keep out of your way.
Also some advanced surf coaches and their pro crew and grommies can dominate the best banks for the early sessions till 8am.
It is not the best break around on the really good days, but can hold its own and has a consistent edge when its hard to find a wave on the coast.
General
All right little break. Go out and have some fun
