- This break was first surfed around 1974/ 75 by Rick Hutchison, a knee boarder and art teacher at Yorketown Area School. He named it "Goldies" after Goldsmiths Beach which is the small beach located further down the point towards Edithburg. It was also surfed by a handful of surfers from the bottom end at Stenhouse and Marion Bay. Hutchie lives in the local community and still surfs this place so show him some respect. It needs a solid swell, light N to NNW winds and a high tide to work.
