About

Very, very, very busy on weekends and holidays. Can be very, very busy when its firing. Is busy in a southeasterly wind with easterly surf due to its wind protection Locals can be aggressive, especially if they are dropped in on. Generally too steep/hollow for long boarders in anything over 3ft+. I have personally seen a long boarder get bashed at this spot for dropping in and getting in front of someones line. "F*** off back to alex..." Unknown Local - 2015. Not too many kooks and overall a very fun and pretty consistent wave.

Atmosphere:
When facing the break you face due north. It is highly protected by southerly and south easterly winds and swell. Slightly protected in easterly winds. Best swell direction is northerly to easterly swell. Can work in huge southeasterly swell (5ft+) when waves can wrap around the point. Is completely flat in southerly swell. Works in north to easterly swell from 2ft+. Waves become more hollow with increased swell size. Nice wave faces from 2-3ft with hollow sections. Gets very hollow in 4ft+ swell. Works best with westerly to southeasterly wind.

Additional Info:
Either jump off the rocks or paddle out beside the groyne where its deepest. Be careful in big surf and watch out for a huge rip near the groyne on an outgoing tide. The main takeoff area is before where you should be jumping off the rocks. Generally the waves are very clean with nice faces for carving with hollow sections. Waves become more hollow with increased swell size. Would not recommend bringing a longboard or boogie-board to this spot, locals very much disapprove.
