Very erie spot, lots of big fish in the water. With the right conditions it turn into a sandbottom right pointbreak with the occasional wide swinging left. Right are bowly and lots of face, lots of dragged out barrels. Lefts are short but pitchy and steep.
Beautiful setting makes the waves even better!

Atmosphere

The atmosphere is very relaxed but very tight in terms of locals. Rarely many people out and usually very big and drifty when there is. Two main peaks when its 3' or less and shifting in anything bigger. Respect the local.
