Additional Information
Don't be fooled by the hollow barrel on the reef, It is very dangerous! if a wide one comes and your in there, lights out!
Bring some diving gear! if its flat its a great and easy area to get a crayfish or 2!
Atmosphere
At this spot you will be blown away by peaceful surroundings and awesome waves! the waves are very powerful and easy to catch! not for the faint hearted!
General
Trial Harbour is a great spot for the surfer with no fear for charging big waves!
