Wedge reef break, breaking over submerged and exposed rocks. There is an outside reef that jumbles up the sets, there is then a reform which is the wave you take-off on, parallel reefs create wedge sections. There is also a long left that is usually shore break, it gets mushier with size. There is a potential right on the outside reef, but it is very fickle and definitely needs some size to get going. This place loves a NW swell brushed with NE winds, needs some size to get going, watch out for rocks at low tide.
Park at Reef Point and walk to the reef.
15 dollars, free with SP Pass
Go somewhere else, there are tons of waves nearby that are more consistent, this place takes some size to get going.
