Trestles
Edit SpotAbout
This spot is the greatest plan on going there early surf, barbecue, surf and leave. Very crowded spot but there is lot's of other spots at walking distance. Churche's, Middles, Uppers, Cotton's.
Additional Info:
Don't go there with the idea to get a lot of wave and to snake people or you'll get yourself killed. Very nice crowed, very local . "be cool and they'll be cool". Surf the inside first and make you're way to the point after a few days.
