The place is hard to find and should only be attempted if you are really keen. The wave breaks very close to shore. The swell jacks up quickly and throws out into a short barrel before ending on the shore. Remember to put your hands forward of your head if you go over the falls (which will happen) or you'll end up in the spinal unit. Take a couple of boards because snapped boards are a regular occourance.
Atmosphere
Situated on West Cape Howe (the most southerly point of WA) it's easy to think you've travelled back a few thousand years. The plants, animals and ocean are untouched by any development
General
If you are keen it might be worth a look but it is a bit of a mission to get there even with a 4X4. Remember the heavy glassing on the boards or it will be in two pieces
