Secret - haven't you guys heard - this place is a secret. to get to it you have to walk through the bar at the worms head hotel, in to the cellar, past narnia (say hello to aslan) and out in to the ocean. smallest i've seen it is 25ft but don't worry its easy as surfing shipsterns so bring your kids too.

wear walking boots!! - Amazing spots along this section, from PR's heading east, a fairly long hike (20-30 mins). I should have worn hiking boots to get there as I fucked up my foot on the sharp rocks. I got shouted at to "fuck off" from the water by a couple of what are assume were locals. To be honest, i think they saved me a beating - so if it was you that shouted, then thanks! The rocks are really fucking sharp and aggressivley shaped, compared with, say, K-bay. I walked further west and paddled out to an inside section of pete's reef and surfed it wide as i was on a big kooky red mal. These are fairly serious spots so take a board you are very happy duck-diving. megga eggy mals are probably not the best thing! amazing and secluded, just wait till the wind turns northerly! Cheers gower boys for having sweeet waves, I hope you know you are v lucky!
