Wells Beach
Edit SpotAbout
It is a fun spot on its day.
Atmosphere:
Crowded tourist spot. Go to liquid dreams for all the surf stuff you need, they are very helpful people.
Additional Info:
It's a fun spot for all surfers but can get very crowded in the summer. Moody point to the north is a much better wave however it takes a much bigger swell to get it working perfectly.
