Mornington Mills & Mothers Beach
Edit SpotAbout
Not the best place to surf but if you have no other choice but to surf in the bay it still good fun.
Atmosphere:
Is a good spot to surf when the ocean beaches are to big or blown out. But watch out for the sharp rocks on your way in at Mothers
Additional Info:
Needs a strong norh to north west wind to work. Can be good on the right day make sure you bring a bigger board like a mal, mini mal, funboard etc. It will usually by stormy when you go.
