A small sandy bay nestled beneath cliffs at the northern tip of the island. From mid to high tide a peak breaks in the centre of the bay over a sand bottom. At high tide this becomes a more defined left. Also at high tide on the eastern side of the bay a righthander can peel down the rocks giving a fast and sometimes hollow ride. Swells over 6ft tend to close-out the bay.
Strong rips and side drift. Sometimes crowded.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
