Additional Surfing Infos
 This is a partial point, partial beach break, that can break for a good distance. When small tends to be rather soft, better on a 4ft plus day.there is a sand bar and a secret slab but is a extremly long walk to get to or a boat ride.
There are some good barrels produced if you get it right.
  Overview
  Atmosphere Very nice but isolated beach. Quite remote, guaranteed to be uncrowded. Also close by to the beautiful Waitomo region with its caves and rock formations. There is also a beach and river bar at marakopa village, very friendly people.
  General good wave, always deserted in one of the remotest spots on the west coast. Would like to surf it on a bigger day.I have a batch at marokopa surf it all the time but if your not a local or you dont no a local you sort of need to know where the good spots are.haha

average
yeah agree with last, soft fat wave, mission to get there, plus varies greatly on tides. If you're gonna drive that far may aswell hit Rags or Taras.
