Take the SR520. The 520 becomes the 20. Make a left on Libbey Road. From there follow the State Park signs all the way to the beach. By the way, to get to Whidbey Island you have to take a ferry which will cost you between 7 and 10 dollars.

Stay clear of the islanders,they have localized this spot and take priotity of the waves. Dropping in here is a no-no. If you ride with respect they will let you in and share sets with you. The point forms a gaping bowl. Best spot to be is in the pocket, where you can get a fast right, or a long barreling left.

It's epic when it goes.

Rarely breaks - The localism is beginning to resemble seaside point. Aggressive sharks. armored car recommended.

Bazza - Surfed it not 2 days ago fun wave but an hour into the session saw a 10ft shark which scared the shit out of me!

Again, same spot different name -- WHY? - This spot is already posted as Fort Ebey. This is like the fourth spot on this website that has been posted at least twice. Why do people keep posting the same spot with different names? It does not help anyone. FYI, I've been here twice, once was ok and another time it was flat. The ranger station has pictures of head high waves. I do not think it gets that way much, kinda fickle wave.
