Cherry Hill is a good point break that is rarely on.often polluted with raw sewage and debris when a swell arrives to wash the shore line. when its on its really on, be sure to wash ur cuts, u will get some.lived here a year and seen it fire really only once. cars have been broken into at this spot, so hide ur valuables.
Atmosphere
General
As far as i currently know it is the best break on the island, when it is does break, though it is hard to go all around the island when there is swell because of the bad roads and not so easy access to all the beaches.
