Additional Information
Similar to further up Brighton Beach, but with some big eddies and you get a nice right hander when the tide is high owing to the curve of South Shore.
Atmosphere
Nice Spot, but the water exiting the estuary make the rips interesting.
General
Not too bad needs exploring, I have seen it on some days when it was smoking, and it looks very good. A consistent right Hander which is very unusual.

Tow In - Some coots were out the other day, way out the back at Eddies trying tow-in looked like they weren't having a lot of luck - but it was a big enough SE just.... There is potential where Eddies meets the outwash from the Estuary 1 day eve year!!

- Depends if you surf to look at your togs - or if you surf any wave because its there. As they say there is a difference between a tourist and a traveller - a tourist complains about everything thats not to his way of thinking and a traveller may never leave.
