Trust me, this is a special place and does not go off very often. Use only with SOUTH swells. This is the closest thing tybee USA has to a point break. Try it out and u might be plesantly surprised. Generally no good surf w/o the right swell direction.

Trust who? - We surf this spot very frequently and have come to find that any swell out of the north brings the pane like a window. South swell > south end of tybee.

This place is fickle - This place is realy good when it is on. but it is very fickle. i personally got a 100+ yard ride here. but it was kinda weak.
