Park your car ontop of the cliff and don't worry it wont get stolen! Paddle next to the rocks avoiding the break more.
Atmosphere
Pretty nice area but gets quite crowded on weekends.
General
Nice break although it does get abit choppy, If there is a light Northerly Wind try the point and The Beach as you can get the odd barrel.

Animal Farm - LUNCH-RAGS is named after the chicks that used to do the mobile lunch van for the workers around Middleton. The actual wave was a bank that hung around for awhile in front of the carpark down from the start of the cliffs a few years ago...a fair few years ago! Cool chicks too! As for LITTLE PADANG!? I surfed this in winter last year...and it was bloody good! Had a bizarre encounter with a Mother Dolphin and her offspring too...well, not that bizarre, you sick freaks!!
