lot of good lefts and rights peak. The best one is calles Grunters: long powerful right, shallow ans sucky take-off. Not for beginners.

just another world class wave in sw wa. - It's big, it barrels, and it breaks easy way down on the inside. Just another great wave in SW WA, like about 25 others, its a classy, heavy area. You just need to wait for the winds to be right-winds best usually in Feb-May, but Sep-Nov can often get good as well.

beginners - I learned to surf in margaret river and i absolutely loved grunters. If you stay relatively close to shore, on decent swell days there are plenty of small rolling waves, easy to catch and a really nice long ride. If you go out farther you can hit some big waves, but right off the point i found to be a great place for beginners, i cought my best waves here, even on a sloppy day elsewhere, i could surf here. Now there is a paved road going to a car park right above it, or you can go to the gas bay car park and walk along the beach. Great spot, check it out!
