Drive south from the Powell River ferry terminal about 15 minutes. When the road becomes directly adjacent to the ocean and you can see Myrtle Rocks on your right, you'll know you are close. Before the road climbs back up away from the ocean there is a small creek. If it's a cranking wind storm and you are amped to surf you will find it right there.
