yeow - yehh siik fun.. even anywhere between trigg n scabs is good. jus gotta find a nice lil bank all to yaself. any swell over like 1.5m on seabreeze scale is worth a look.. sets pick up heaps more on a high tide.

To Wannasurf, From Sean - This is just silly...
Contacios is the pub and bar right? And yes, there is a beach down in front of it, but it shouldn't be given its' own spot and name, the wave sometimes breaks all the way from infront of the Scarborough life guarding tower all the way past there, so it's not unigue in it's own way, take it off.
Just like the Superbanks (100 classes below of coarse) it breaks all the way across...simply call it: Scarborough;)
