Additional Information
Take off outside the rock ledge and make sure there is enough water on it!
Atmosphere
We are the only people to surf this spot - it looks poor from the beach but is really fun out there; that's probably why there is never anyone on it. It is near a caravan park frequented by hot chicks who don't mind checking out the only surfers that actually surf it.
General
This is the spot to hit when everywhere else is packed and crowds are not your thing. Don't expect perfection and you'll have a blast.
