Moonlight Bay
Edit SpotAbout
Underrated.
Atmosphere:
Awsome, hardly ever a crowd. Beutiful surroundings.
Additional Info:
Righthander in small, rocky bay. It works the same as Pringles. SE offshore wind. Usually a bit bigger than Pringles. It works when you least expect it. Picks up quite abit of swell. Can get hectic with bigger swell. Sometimes there is a pretty good shorey and a wave that wedges off the rocks on the left side of the bay. Theres a mean reef break on the right side that works with big swell and only on high or rising tides. Big open barrels.
