Additional Surfing Infos
 Fun wave, gets crowded with more than 8 people on the really small takeoff. Crowd consist of mainly military. can produce doubble lip meat grinders that are fun to back door if you got the marbles. On the right swell you can get a 3-5 second barrel out of em.
if you cant surf, dont crowd this small take off zone. be kind to the locals too, water already has enough "hard talking-pissed off-cant pull off a bottom turn- hard core surfers out.
  Overview
  Atmosphere 75% the vibe is pretty mello, everyone gets along with everyone, the other 25% consist of a single pissed off dude thats dropping in on everyone and ruins the session for everyone.
  General great fun wave with Relaxed have fun crowd that knows what they're doing.

bowls "a right"
That's a good cover up to keep the kooks out, but the secret is out. The left is why people surf it. It has a really critical take-off area that sucks off the reef and throws a short barrel with a rippable shoulder that may be good for a turn or two. I have seen people try the right, but it is definitely not anything to speak of.
