sand banks - It used to be called the lake....when it flowed! Occasionally the council will let the lake out and the sand rushing out can create good sand banks...I remember when some of the local crew dug it out in 1990 one night.. there was about 20 of us...cause the banks were shit then....but the banks get good there...same as any beach break!

Sharky - The sharky is a sick spot to surf it, it has some good barrels sometimes and produces a good peak in front of the sharky.And stop saying wat you can do and talk about the spot!
