Pretty good wave... think the right at trestles in reverse... north swells spin this place outta control so it only breaks on those smooth, long period swells that come from NZ. Not quite as long as Trestles, but still really fun, and you'll be the only one out, except for a few grey suits.
General
Bring your shark repellent.
