Beach only accessible 3 hours on either side of low tide. Very good sand bars especially in winter when hollow surf can consistently found. Line up is often empty but in summer months could have a dozen surfers out.Great place to surf for all levels, but beginners be warned rips and currents are known to be present but mostly on a strong tide or swell over 4ft(1m). Be warned waves breaks into rocks at 3 hours either side of high tide so it's impossible to surf. Watch out also as 3 hours before high tide access points can be cut off and can be very dangerous leaving the surf!

Nice break to find uncrowded surf.Be sure to park your car up top(you'll understand what i mean once arriving). Be careful walking down, main access point, can be slippery at foot of slipway(priceless watching guys running down to surf only to fall on their arse and it does hurt!)
Atmosphere
Very tranquil spot beautiful landscape and hardly no one about!
General
when good it's brilliant when ok it's so fun

Looking for it for 3 hours with a buddy.
Locals do not see surfers around.
Mostly cliff, and few beaches without proper conditions for surf.
Don't know if it this spot is a hoax.
If you're going to look for it. good luck, maps and GPS being useless, you'll need a boat.
