Additional Information
Its best to take a boat to the peak to avoid the locals and the grueling inside shorepound. Once outside give the locals(identifiable by welcoming smiles and laughter) a few set waves. Then proceed to the peak and signal a left or right takeoff with the corresponding arm. Once a wave approaches lower signal arm and proceed to paddle. The take-off is hollow, only the boils let you in, pull in, kick out, repeat.

Atmosphere
The spot is generally swarming with happy go lucky locals. The kind of people you want to bring home to your parents on a cloudy day. The locals park their cars facing the break and honk at every ride so as to be fair with their stoke.
Its a simple place built on pride, trust, happy hour and a strong sense of community. Ask for Wendell, he will show you the ropes.
