Additional Surfing Infos
 During the summer months if there is a good swell, get there early, as the car park fills up pretty quick and you may find yourself parking way up on the road.
  Overview
  Atmosphere The quality of the water is very clear and nice to surf, one problem however is the water temprature..it´s freezing all year round. I just got back from surfing it in mid August and you definatley need a 3/2 steamer summer, winter i´d say all the gear cap, booties, gloves etc otherwise you will freeze before you take your first wave. This beachie doesn´t harbour as many boogie boarders as other local beaches and i hear there are presently 2 good banks there, an inside bank and an outer one for bigger days. There is a good cafe/bar on the beach also which is quite nice for a beer after ... SUPER BOK !!!! A couple of bikinis on the beach to boost the views, and if you are game, a nude hangout spot further down the beach.

Hi Anonymous...
There are no camping facilities on this beach, and the only supplies you can get are from the beach bar, which serves decent food but not at the most competitive prices..And you need a car to get to these places

bodyboard world championships!?
Is there such thing as a worldchampionships for spongers?
Everyone can take a wave lying on his belly, as far as I concern you are all champions! But after being a champion you guys should grow up and buy a surfboard, or go and play in some close out shorebreak on the other side of the beach.
