Atmosphere
Great spot, no one out there, just you and the ocean, some rocks and some sharks.
Sharks can be a problem due to the nobbies being just across the bay. I think it's about 13 km. Been no attacks though but be careful.
General
Great spot when working. It's protected from stronger winds. The cliffs make this place much cleaner than the waves around the area.
