Park and walk through through the remains of an old apartment complex destroyed during Ivan. Jump in by the old boat ramp. Exiting at this spot can be sketchy, if so, there is a small cove west of the ramp to get out of the water. Have respect and keep it clean.
Atmosphere
General
Chilled spot, fun wave. When it's on it can be overhead and only you in the water. Unfortunately can go for months of nothing or will be blown out.
