Bannisters point
Edit SpotAbout
Great spot to have a bit of fun in when on holidays or a south coast road trip. Definitely worth a paddle!
Atmosphere:
There is almost no-one here on a weekday or weekend during the year, so its really perfect. Can get really crowded during school holidays and possibly wont be allowed to surf with flags.
Atmosphere is great with amazing houses overlooking the cliff and mostly pristine water conditions.
It is also a great place to learn to surf
Additional Info:
Park car in Beach Rd along side of road, always spaces... alternatively if you are renting a property nearby you can walk.
On a good swell this spot can peal beautiful left handers, good more shortboards and possibly mini mals, be careful of rocks on low tide about 50 meters down from the point
