Additional Information
This is mostly a left hand point break which works best on low-mid tides. A right is sometimes ridable.
Atmosphere
The atmosphere is usually pretty good, as it is not as 'hard core' as some spots in the area - and is a little less accessible!
General
Well worth the walk. Yet another quality wave in this extremely wave-rich area.

- I´ve heard from friends that have already surfed there that it´s a heavy wave with big barrels that looks like Pipe on it´s better days. However, I don´t know anything about the constancy of the break.
