- Rocks
Park at Morwenstow, next to the church. Take a nice 6'6" cos its a fast wave.
Atmosphere
Charge down the line sort of wave. Maybe get a quick cover-up, but you have to pull out quick cos it surges up the rocks. Easy barrel though.
General
A bit like the moon.

The setup - Photos on www.cus.org.uk/~discjirm/walks/2003/357.html- . The right is shown in the Cornakey Cliff photo and the left in the distance of Henna. Not really worth the effort, tide window small, access difficult.

Don't bother - It is a tiny cove. You either have a beachbreak on spring lows (closeout crap) or at high tide a very sketchy pointbreak each side into the tiny bay. Big sets close out and the access is impossible/very dangerous.
