Additional Surfing Infos
 It's a good fun beachy but crap when it's windy
take a mate or something cuz sometimes there is no-one there.

Just watch out if your charging the shorey as there's nearly always rocks. If a big storm has recently passed be full careful as the rocks uncover heaps easy.
  Overview
  Atmosphere Yeh when its working it's an awesome atmosphere. Locals are mad and don't drop u but dont snake 'em or they will burn ya.

Pretty sweet atmosphere except for all of the longboarders always stealing your wave but if they try just tell em to get lost, and if the don't keep riding it and then keep droppin in on em.
  General Sweet, it's good alround spot always breakin and some good secret reefs nearby.

rip depends on the tide. i was there in the last swell and for bout an 1hr it was probably the best waves i have ever seen break on sand. apart from that 1 hr its always shit

its aight
its not reall rippy, but really only surf it when theres a solid swell and clean conditions. youd probaly only wanna hit up the bank out at the mouth though. thats lefts and rights. Lefts better.
