This spot is predominantly a left, but there can be a bit of a right as well.
It peaks on a patch of reef that gets drier with increasing swell and then breaks over sand. The sand can be a bit fickle, but there will always be a wave here

- This was always known as 'Otherside of the Moon'. I used to surf this place midweek in the late 80's and 90's. Always an alternative to the more crowded Windmills but certainly not as good.
