Additional Surfing Infos
 Confident on lefts,watch for rips leading to the sea, don't surf early morning, late night alone, best to wear booties and watch for flying golf balls.
  Overview
  Atmosphere A relitively quiet spot, but spooky and if no-ones out you can hear a howling noises coming from the barrel.
  General Epic, gotta surf it. Great for your cutback bottom turn repetuor.

I rate this wave and im a natural
recently we had butter box to a group of about 5 of my mates and it was a solid 3 foot and perfect until a bodyboarder came out after about an hour but no dramas to b had heaps of waves to go around. If you are a natural and it is not too big i sugest having a go at the right hander it is so high on my ratings deffinately worth a surf hav a good one guys
