Atmosphere
There will never be anyone there surfing, it needs a big swell so if Florence Bay is working well try this place on a mid incoming tide. This beach will also pick up the once a year big northerly swell. And will be the best place to surf when its cyclonic as it is protected from the winds and what little wind does make it into the bay it will be off shore. If the the swell starts to turn southerly it will stop breaking as will the rest of the beaches on the island.
