easiest way is to park at arcadia beach and walk around headland to the north. keep walking until you reach the giant rock just offshore. keep in mind on a high tide the headland will get harder to negotiate back around.the wave is the right that will peeling off the rock. DistanceTake a car WalkGood walk (15-30 mn) Easy to find?OK Public access?Public access Special accessDon't know |

Additional Information
photo coming soon. when paddling out dont give up. there are generaly two sand bars and the second one is tough to get past. when your out far enough paddle north towards the rock. the closer you get to the rock, the more hollow the wave. good luck and see you out there. oh yeah. i have never had any company out there. has anyone ever surfed this almost point break wave?
Atmosphere
when you finally get outside you and the sharks will be the only ones out. farkin beautiful spot.
General
i have only surfed this spot a few times due to the limited swell and wind pattern it takes here, but a mid size swell with offshores and your in the money.

Typical - if you have never seen anyone else out there why the crap did you post it on here? Go back to CA idiot.

nice - I know where this is at. I have no clue if it can be surfed, but the people in WA might get skunked.
