About

do not surf this break unless u want to walk all the way back up the beach(2km)after gettin the ride of ur life. but the walk is easly calmed by the great amount of gold coast girls sunbakeing before ur eyes(",)

Atmosphere:
The Atmosphere is basicly snapper, greenmount and kirra all combined. ALOT of people but sometimes if you pull into a good wave that can be satisfying enough.

Additional Info:
This spot is a combination of a point break to a beachie. The wave starts at snapper rocks and breaks all the way through to kirra with alot of sections. On a good day all you can do is pump and pump for the tube, other days its a very long wall for you to carve.

Location

Access

Drive to snapper rocks. Along the back highway on the Gold Coast and take the coolingater exit. Follow the Gold Coast high way past the airport and turn off at Kirra. Take the main street (Runs along the beach front) up to greenmount or snapper rocks.
