One of the last true secrets around here so get to it while you can.

By no means a classic but it can offer a few nice fast sections and when it all joins up you can get a long ride too!

lesters makes me moist - lesters is a right hander that after it pumps usually spits within 30 seconds depending on the conditions but dont allow too much friction as it will burn baby burn disco inferno

none of you have a clue - lester point is in combemartin bay itself which gets about a smuch surf as any other little cove on the north coast s$*t all.. youll have to search hard on every tide swell and wind if u want the smallest smigden of a ridable wave...just go to the main beaches n dont waste ya time!!
