floating art - i saw this big big buoy with floating art float in front of the coast, it looks ok and it could easy hide a wave machine, like the one Tom Morey was working on for a while, i think he called it a wavecannon, it would compress a lot of air into tanks sitting on a floating pontoon outside the coast and then release them through tubes underneath the pontoon in the direction of the coast creating ridable waves, if there is enough money around to put a raft with art on it there must be some money around to put a raft with a wave machine under the art, just a thought, it would be good for local bisniz too, everyday nice peeling waves, just turn the machine on. :)

Must see - I went there 3 weeks ago, waves were not great but okay. We went to the bar at the spot, with one word!? GREAT, to my mind a MUST SEE Spot. If it dosn`t work take a 30 minutes drive to Blankenberge
