Big Rock
Edit SpotAbout
On good clean days this spot is EPIC barrels.
Atmosphere:
At this spot at low tide it get a little ledgy and can become shark island (but a left) instantly. I remember i cought this one wave and the bottom started to drop out and it ledged up, I hit the ledge then got sucked over and hit the reef. Ouch! Just be careful that you dont go straight, you'll definently hit the rock.
