Brilliant - Dont why it says experienced only? This is the spot I first stood up. Absolutely brilliant spot. Nice clean waves, protected from the North winds, water crytal and the waves are the best Ive been in. This place rates the best for myself, although Ive only been surfing a couple of days and in a couple of places but miles better than other beaches Ive attempted to surf at.
