Hippa Rock Access
  A short hike up the coast path from Stanbury Mouth. A bit of a mission getting down the cliff.Get down to Stanbury mouth via the road sign above Morwenstowe satellite station. Once you are stood on Stanbury beach, look left and there is inner point (stanbury right) and as you look out the back, it's right out and continues from that point.

Additional Surfing Infos
 Follow the advise for Stanbury. Be careful though, cos its really remote and access is pretty sketchy.
  Overview
  Atmosphere Absolutely epic reef. The wave comes out of deep water and unloads on a shallow slab, giving an easy barrel. Probably one of the best waves on this stretch of coast...if you can find it.

its real and its sick
sure its a bit rocky, but thats better than some flappy beachbreak, init? i've had some fuckin good waves here.

That's bollocks
The rock sticks right out of the water at low tide and at higher tides it is still stuck out. There is no wave here at all. The wave in this area is Stanbury at high tide on a big swell and then you can't get out of the water! Good luck. this bloke is having a laugh.

It's here.
Get down to Stanbury mouth via the road sign above Morwenstowe satellite station. Once you are stood on Stanbury beach, look left and there is inner point (stanbury right) and as you look out the back, it's right out and continues from that point. The question is, are the spots of North devon coming out next. This little splurge by wannasurf indicates something bigger to come. I reckon they have decided to pull the plug on all the secret spots that people sent in. They have missed out some important ones out though........If you're interested in finding new spots/exploration. I'm on the case.
