Park your car at to top of the cliff or take a 4x4 vehicle to the bottom.
Atmosphere
Driving on a flat dirt road strip then getting to the top of the cliff. Probably need a 4x4 vehicle of it is slippery. If its raining the river flows and sometimes the water gets murky. mostly the wind direction there is ENE and it is still good fun. Lots of waves to catch.
General
This wave is a good wave to go and learn how to surf or bodyboard.
