Additional Information

Very difficult to get down the cliff, but its worth it.

Atmosphere

The waves a kind of right hand point that breaks over sand that accumulates over the rocks. The rocks seem to stabalise the sand making it pretty consistent.

General

Not for the faint hearted, due to the dodgy climb down the cliff. Its worth it though, the water is crystal clear and there are some mad rock formations.
