general information

One of the best breaks on this part of the coastline offering good barrels of both left and right wrapping around sandbanks into the river mouth with punch. It will work on all tides and doesn't get too crowded, it can be rippy and sharky. Parking locally is a no go unless you live here so park further out and walk to the break.
