dont try and navigate through any channel you may think you see. paddle through the bay and accross to it. it may break 5 times a year and it is a quick pitching lip onto rocks. surfers have been hurt here and it is that fickle it is not really worth mentioning. BTW middleton is puss, the only hope is a left inside the bay on a decent swell sometimes..sometimes DistanceTake a car WalkInstant access (< 5min) Easy to find?Easy to find Public access?Public access Special accessDon't know |

long boarders and lids r wankas - this wave is ridden by either longboarders or lids coz longboarders get in early and lids can take off on the rocks coz they're soft and lay down. shortboarders ride the inside bowly left of the bay.
