 Additional Information

There is a car park nearby and you just have to walk over the rocks to the water.....when paddling out you will likely have to duck-dive some whitewash. it is a very steep take-off and you cannot afford to go straight.....tuck in tight under the lip as it is a very fast wave..dont go out unless you are comfortable with the conditions..........thankfully the hospital is nearby and BP rescue is at lyall bay!
