The Springs (Fraser Island)
Edit SpotAbout
Great place to go! not the biggest wave ever but is worth every km of the drive.
Atmosphere:
It is a great place for a weekend camping trip. camp fires allowd no camping fees great surfing spot. make sure to take some water and a packed lunch down as it is bitch to walk back and forth to the car park. jan 04 the place went off! Constant 4 to 6 foot waves peeling for hundred of metres. Beautiful!
Additional Info:
if you have trouble finding the entrance just ask a local and the are bound to know exactly where to go.
