Bali Bay
Edit SpotAbout
'Locals' are often a bunch of kids so theres not too much of a bad vibe just come and enjoy. Lots of kelp aswell so i think better suited for bodyboarders because of the type of wave.
Atmosphere:
Watch out for the exposed reef.
Additional Info:
A mean little righthander that breaks over a shallow rock ledge and eventually closes out more often than not because of the exposed rocks further down the ride. Gets pretty gnarly when big. I think best enjoyed between 3-6 foot swell.
