Additional Information
Be careful when surfing this place to tidy up after you, local farmers dont take too well to this sort of thing and it could spoil future trips for others.As for the wave just go out and have fun!It works with most winds because of the shape of the bay, and is more popular as a windsurfing spot (PWA event held there annually).
