Additional Information
the quality of the wave is dependant on the sand build up next to the reef. if it is fat then there is obviously no sand bank there and you will have to come back another day to surf the proper gravis.

Atmosphere
it is a really nice wave when the banks are good and there is a bit of swell. when the swell gets over 3m then gravis shorey starts to work (if it has a bank!) this can be surfed with any wind when it gets big because usually even if it is offshore it is still fairly messy.
