Additional Information
if you happen to find it, the shackies wont appreciate cars on their land. be careful and try to avoid dangerous rips.
Atmosphere
wild, huge swells with nothing between africa and the west coast. watch out for motorbikes too. shallow break so be careful when pulling in. the rocks make it look scary but dont get turned off because youll be missing out.
General
gnarly break and freak sets come through. great fun wave and if you have time, mission a little further to the sand dunes for a little sand boarding.........
