Nile Creek Does Go Off
I regularly surf both the east and west sides of the island, including remote breaks on the west coast like Twin Rivers and Hesquiat Peninsula. I pulled up to Nile Creek during the tail end of a strong winter storm, and I was blown away. The first thing I saw was a guy on a funboard go over the falls backwards while trying to paddle over a 7 foot curling face. I laughed my head off in disbeleif and suited up for what ended up being a super fun session on the east side of the island. Quick fast rights, occasionally heaving lips, and very very strong sideways currents (typical on any point break)I follwed the storms, and found It only breaks like that a few times every winter.

To the haters
This is for all the posts on here who say that there is no surf in Qualicum....Good, keep thinkin that cause we dont want you out there anyway. I consistantly surf four diferent spots in this area and they can range from a small 3' to a powerful 7' somteimes 8' if you get the right weather. If you live here and you know where to go you can find the waves, for anyone out of town i wouldnt recomend it because the best spots are well kept secrets and unless you know where to go you will never find them! To everybody on the eastside that does live and surf here you know what its like and it speaks for itself. See you in the line up!
