Go here! No, wait, don't go here! Or... - ... this is the 3rd best surf spot in Washington, behind 3 tr*** point, and ***d I***nd (ha ha, NOT on Wannasurf, yet). But you gotta know when it works, which is seldom. So go here if you want good surf seldom. On second thoughts, don't go here; I want it for myself and my bludz.
