A wave for the hardiest of surfers. This will grind you into a pulp before you know what has happened.
The wave itself forms from a combination of an incoming and the wash off the jetty - creating a huge wedge. Breaks with a great view from the beach.
Works on all tides with a south / south east swell and a north or northeast wind. Will work up to 20ft, you should think seriously about surfing at this size.
Free parking and beach access. Gets busy early when its on.
