West Strand
Edit SpotAbout
good vibe. Very clean
Atmosphere:
This is a good beachbreak that holds about 8ft surf. It has a reef for the more experieced who want more of a challenge. It has been breaks like these that have made my art teacher a Irish champ in the 70's
Additional Info:
Watch out for the lefthand side as this is a reef called Black Rock and best left to the experienced, but it is only the last 20 yards before the cliff so that leaves plenty of nice beach.
