Boobies
Edit SpotAbout
I have had some really good surfs here and some terrible surfs. It is either very good or not worth getting wet for. The trouble is, it is hard to know what it will be like before you go in sometimes.
Atmosphere:
The vibe in the water is usually friendly. Can get a bit tense in the summer when it gets very crowded as it picks up a lot of swell.
Additional Info:
When the banks are good this wave can be epic. There are normally 3 peaks. One in the middle, one to the left off Constantine Point and one on the right near the rocks. The middle peak is normally best at mid tide. Does get rippy if the wind is too strong.
At high tide there is no beach.
When the swell is right The Slab is the place to be. This is a hollow, sucky right hand reef at low tide off the cliffs to the North. If it is breaking it is easy to spot. When it gets good, it gets mega crowded with talented locals.
