Little Marley Point
Edit SpotAbout
I won't do the walk again. Going down is OK coming back after a long surf is the pits. I will only go in on a Jetski.

Atmosphere:
This is a great short sharp right that give a decent amount of time in the green room on its day but watch the rock coming out of the water at the end of the ride on the corner of the Bay. It is virtually un-surfed 360 days a year with only a handful of Garie Boardriders and Bundeena local to have surfed it.
Additional Info:
Park on the Bundeena Road Lat. 34° 6'11.47"S Lon.151° 6'56.98"E and walk in 45mins towards the east. Come out on the Coast Track at Lat. 34° 7'9.63"S, Lon.151° 7'44.53"E . Turn left head Northeast on the Coastal Track. At Lat.34° 7'3.66"S Lon.151° 8'0.79"E and head South East to Little Marley Beach. 5 Minute Paddle Out from the protected beach. The alternative is to walk in from Bundeena on the Coastal Track or Boat 30 Minutes from Port Hacking, Jetski is better like 10 minutes plus towing in is great here on a big swell.
