- great peak with a spooky reef further out but the beach on the other side picks up more size although a bit heavier

unreal - Me and my dad were driving past one day while staying in Foster!! We took one look at it, perfect 5 ft peaks sprawling across the horizon with only 3 people out!! The best surf session i have ever had wow

keep out - Wallabi is the sickest break in the world (somtimes) it can be mushy for the groms like me or so loud it'll keep you up at night also good for the groms, so wallabi is really the perfict grommet wave but Groms beware coz grommet abuse is very servere in this area and gangstas stay away coz its the wallcore the hardest core of all.
