Additional Surfing Infos |
| | Beacons is a good outside break with a nice north reef too. It's hardly ever crowded. Always take of from the outside, and beware of the dumping shorebreak at North Reef.
|
| |
Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
Relatively good, not too many local problems, but the South Reef has a few loggers who like to snake you. |
| |
General |
I learned to surf here, and I still surf here. It's been 7 years. Even on a crowded day there are waves to be had. North peak and south peak fill up, but the in between section works on swing wide sets. This wave is very versatile. Bring your longboard, fish, or short board and you will be stoked. On big days stay away unless you want to paddle. |
