anthony - this heading about 15 foot huge sharks , i am a local o this beach 90 miles of it also to also has 3 sand bars that sharks are very weary to come close to , lets face it do you see many beached sharks . there can be some little ones floating around , i have surfed johanna now thats the place that has all wat this bloke is talking about , as for lock sport yes lots of activity in the water there , i have not known anyone to get eaten . anyway i would say its a good beach anywhere is dangerous if the conditions are heavy . with a north wind and off shore , it can a little wave thats ok to ride and safe .
