Pennington Bay
Edit SpotAbout
Its a good spot, but like i said, watch out for sharks.
Atmosphere:
Its good in the winter season. thats when it breaks its best. watch out for, rips, undertows, pot-holes and most of all, great white sharks. if its a really good day on a weekend and no-one is out, dont go out. theres likely to be a great white attracted to some fisherman's bait. Never surf there alone.
