From the island it's about 800m paddle. You have to come here by boat anyway so you may as well take it out and park the boat somewhere calm.

 Additional Information

It's a solid left hander off the reef, almost like an Indo wave. However the swell window is quite small and the tides are very large around here so it is quite inconsistent. Don't get injured here as you are a long, long way from any help in this remoter area of the world.

Atmosphere

There's hundreds of islands around this region of the Kimberley which are potential surf spots despite the small swell window and tidal movements. If you go sailing through the area it is definitely worth taking a surfboard and a camera as you might just get lucky with the right conditions.

General

You have to be pretty crazy to surf this spot or any of the other nearby islands as there's plenty of big sharks, crocs, stingrays, jelly-fish and other critters. However if you come here on a good swell and conditions it will be the experience of a lifetime. Also really good camping along the isolated, protected beaches and lagoons.
