Middle river wedge
Edit SpotAbout
the people of ki dont talk bout there surf much they dont think this is a surf beach to them its a fishing beach. me and four mates came over bout two years ago on a crazy storm day and just saw at the end of the beach this fucken narly. there is no surf atmosphere. its almost like a dream come true if get to see and ride it.
Additional Info:
there is a car park near the entrance but then u will walk for 10 15 mins wit ur board and stuff to the end of the beach so park it up close to the sand dunes near the river mouth. it wedges once a year with heavy swell as u no the river mouth is right in front of the cliff face wich makes it wedge. be careful. the wedge spongers only. the beach break any one. it only breaks once a year and the wedge is nuts just be careful many hazards.
