Nice spot. Nearly no locals. exept for me! nice barrelling wave with 2 sections. like a mini backdoor. awesome on a big swell. daqngerous on an outgoing tide. surfers beware because boards are easily snapped here. strange atmosphere. there are often wild chicken running around on the point(hence the name Chicken Run). can get a sharky feel to it. cuts from the rocks can get very easily infected
