... - a magical place...but if the surf get's bigger beginners should stay out...the rip left of the rocks pulls you out throug the cannel too easy...and then your in a 6 to 8ft line up with dry hair and no idea of what to do...

alright - I hit this place on a good day in summer. Believe it or not. There were shoulder to head high waves coming in and strong offshores. The break is pretty sheltered by cliffs and is not only a good place to surf but to hang out too. Its a gorgeous half moon bay surrounded by high cliffs. Not too crowded either.
