Lakeshore Rd W of Port Colborne to Mohawk Point Rd. Take Mohawk Point Rd to two breaks; First is Chickencoops, smaller and less blown out. 2/3 of the way to the point is DLand, bigger and stronger current. Get permission from landowners before parking or they freak out. |

Additional Surfing Infos |
| | Park at the end of the road. Paddle out from the bay near the point straight toward Buffalo into the lineup. You'll need a friend to drive the car to bring you back into lineup; some rides on a good day will take you from Dland all the way past chickencoops. Current near impossible to paddle against, unless you paddle out into the middle of the bay where the rip will take you back out to Dland

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
Just be cool with the landowners or they will call the cops. Watch your head, and bring a STRONG mid-sized board. YOU WILL hit the rocks. Zebra mussels will wreck your feet and wetsuit. Water smells like sewage. |

General |
Best spot in Erie, Hands down. Time it right for when the wind stops and it's amazing. Ron McFarlane and I first spotted it from an Airplane in 95, Steve Manners and I first snorkelled and surfed it shortly after. |
