the right can be epic, with super hollow barrells especially at low tide,
but don't go left! you will get nailed by the razor sharp barnacle covered reef.
Atmosphere
harsh cornish landscape, with an equally harsh wave. when its on the wave convays pure power, i've not felt the intensity and atmosphere that this place has since my last trip to Box (west oz)
General
surfed it for 2 winters with almost no one else in. in my opinion its the best wave in England, or at least that i've surfed

- This spot is reel but just described badly, When it say rame reef eastern it means the eastern reef from queener point, by the little sandy bay under the building on top of rame head. So another words the reef is located on the west side of rame head but is to the east of the other reef(queener point).

Rame - Nope, its a joke spot. Get it. You could try surfing off fort Picklecombe on a big westerly swell though. There you go another secret out the bag.
