Shark park
Edit SpotAbout
I've never surfed it but it looks incredible. I don't think it breaks very often.
Atmosphere:
Breaks on underwater mountain range which happens to be a breeding ground for Great White Sharks. Tons of Seals, Sea lions and elephant seals in the area so abundance of food for sharks.
Additional Info:
Huge top to bottom Barrel. Looks incredible. You can see it on WWW.youtube.com. This is not a spot for beginers. Tow In only. great pictures on www.towsurf.com
