A decent right-hand point break to the left of the beach and a few other peaks on the dropping tide make this one of the more consistently good spots in the South East.
Usually best on large swells it can hold up to around six feet plus and still be rideable.
There are plenty of rocks as the beach is basically made up of large pebbles with some sand at low tide. Long walls and cover up's are not unheard of here!
