Additional Surfing Infos |
| | DEfinately works best on a higher tide, Good fun surf, not usually any crowd at all. Rocks and reef can be exposed but they're not too dangerous. Sometimes it can break on a certain rock but usually breaks ontop of sand.

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
Great atomsphere, great place for a weekend or holiday, there is plenty else to do there to. Surfwise it good, there are varios breaks along the coast so a quad bike is nessasary to find these well hiden spots. Locals are sweet. There are some bach houses there so if you know someone there or rent a bach, or just camp there. Nice place to stay. |
| |
General |
Great fun spending sumerdays in the surf, awsome wave when it is on, barrels on the inside and crumbly on the outside. DEfinately best to go there is summer months. |
