Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
Kind of shifty, somewhat hard to read, but you can get big long waves that peel and reform. When its blown out in the afternoon it can be big but not as powerful. Just be careful on the low tides of the sharp bottom. |
| |
General |
Fun afternoon spot. Uncrowded, long, and usually big. This place is also good whenever its glassy, but i usually surfed it when it was kinda onshore. |
