Atmosphere
Its a place you can have 2 or 3 sessions in a day if the sea breeze does not come up in the afternoon.Best surfed in the morning, but can turn on all day if wind stays in the eastern quarter. Swell does not have to be big for it to work unlike Manu & Whale Bays. So when points are flat go here, its an easy option.

General
We had some great waves here. Take your turn & you'll find some wackable walls to work with. Definately a fun wave. You won't often find a green room here but some nice ramps to smack.
