Dunes - Exmouth
Edit SpotAbout
Because the line up is so empty in the day you will get loads of waves, if a swell is running.
Go check it out.
Atmosphere:
What can I say. Chilled out, no hastle desert break. I was only going to stop for 2/3 days but the place was so chilled, I was there 3 weeks and surfed most days. I only hit the bottom a few times.
Additional Info:
Car park behind dunes. Theres a hollow left that gets real shallow as the tide drops, and a more wally right with hollow sections. Theres a good rip between the breaks to paddle out through.
A good reef to start out on. The green room has a nice view.
