Additional Information
Is a nice wave that only works when big groundswell push in through western port.Needs heaps of swell to work but when its working its great.This is a sometimes ledging takeoff, before a number of wally and sometimes barreling section take you on a epic ride all the way to the beach!
Park your car close to the walkway, if there's a park at all.
Atmosphere
This can be either your best or worst surf in Victoria. If you score it uncrowded, you won't forget it. Paddle out when it's crowded, and you won't get a wave!
General
EPIC, I LOVE IT!!!!

crowds - this place has a good wave but is so crowded all the time, if there is no where else to go because of a strong southerly wind and flynns is reasonable, it will have 20 people on it trying to get a wave

ha - yeah you can get it relatively uncrowded....just don't surf it when melbourne people have days off from work (eg near the weekend or public holiday, or summer). oh yeah and it gets world class like once or twice a year, other than that it is only fun at best
