Summerlands
Edit SpotAbout
Great spot. Experienced surfers only, watch out for the penguins and sharks can be a problem round here due to being pretty close to the nobbies.
Atmosphere:
Great spot no-one out most the time. It's a bit shallow so watch out for the rocks.
Additional Info:
Good spot when Wooli is to big and chopped out. Needs a big swell to be good.
Location
Loading...Access
Go to the penguin parade on Phillip Island.You can only go there between 9 am and 4am
You need to go up a dirt road and you will see a a path with a gate that should be opened. Go in there. That gate is locked now, and unaccessible. You have to walk down the boardwalk of the penguin parade, which is on the same road, right next to the corner of the penguin parade building, there is a big gate, and it has the closing times displayed on it (9-5 I think)
If you drive all the way down the dirt road to the end of the point there is a goat track leading down from right next to the wooden look out. This takes you right to the back of the break, shortens the walk and the paddel. Also means you dont have to worry bout the gate closing on you when it gets too late.
