Additional Surfing Infos
 Drive to sardinia bay. theres 2 parking lots. the first one is closer to walk from but if theres no cars rather park at the main lot cos of theft. walk towards doughnuts and then be prepared to paddle out to the reef at the backline...a few good 100 meters...and then get slotted!
  Overview
  Atmosphere Small bay where the spot is located. real natural scene. no city lifes for miles.
  General SIC SIC SIC!!! awesome wave...runs like indo and tubes crazy over shallow reef ledge. worth the surf but you have to get it on the right size, tide and wind and then its supa sic.

Sharky!
I've seen guys get chased out there before, it's one hell of a paddle back to the beach! Good waves, but you need eyes in the back of your head!
