Located on the north west coast of Phillip Island (that's all I'm saying!!). It's a 20 minute beach walk from the closest carpark - a nightmare on 40c days!!

 Additional Information

This spot was named by the first two guys to surf it years ago. One of the surfers ripped the arse out of his wetty on the reef; hence its name.

Very rarely surfed as it's a secret spot.

This is the first abuse I've hurled on here - Mate, for posting this as a spot on the NW of the Island you are an absolute tool. Anyone with any sense of geography of the island will know that if you are on the north west (ie Right Point, Flynn's, etc), you will have some view of the eastern flank of the Mornington Peninsula - Hastings, Point Leo, blah blah. Go back to fishing turds out of your nappies.
