You take the road to the beach, then as far as you can go, you have to walk for a bit futher unless you want to bash the 4WD, then there is a raggedy old fence and a ledgy left breaking in shallow water right in front of you...

Additional Information
Its an epic spot. Its become well known through bodyboarding magazines and videos after some East Coast pro's were taken there by a friendly local and aspiring professional.
Atmosphere
Heavy, gnarly, dependant on sand build up
General
Watch it before you paddle out because there are rogue clean up sets, can be dangerous getting in and out when big so take care! Very shallow... dangerous, but the rewards are there!
