Additional Surfing Infos |
| | Far away from all Civilisation, I came along this spot while doing to long drive from Perth to Melbourne and back. Very nice spot, don't attract sharks. Lots of sharks and are renowned for them, also be careful of the locals, they deserve alot of respect.

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
Great surfboard shaper Paul Gravelle lives here and his boards are very popular among the locals. Very Desertish scenery and hot most times except it winter, It gets cold! Only go out if it's good and has people out. Less chance of being eaten ;]. Low chance, but still. Have fun surfers! (No Lids) |
| |
General |
Respect the locals and be careful of sharks, not a big chance of seing one, and not many fatalities (about 2). One of the best surf spots in Australia (Regarded as that) and for all those Die Hard Surfers, stay at cactus beach Tent Place, Firewood and showers (Outdoor) Provided. |
