- Man-made danger (buoys etc..)
Park in the cavalier parking lot no one will care. It's an easy wave to surf with a lot of power and barrels on good days.
Atmosphere
Layed back in a week of surfing it only saw 3 other people surf it and has just as much potential as all the piers.
General
Great spot - No crowd.

OBX is One Big Spot! - Is it just me or could just about every street or landmark around here be considered a "spot?" The Cavalier is just a hotel with shifting sand bars out front like everywhere else to the north or south for 15 miles. Check the piers first or just go to the beach, look for sand bars breaking and go there!
