Big River
Edit SpotAbout
Just another wave.
Atmosphere:
In general a semi-fun place to get wet. With the right conditions it can get good.
Additional Info:
I've been chased out by a White here on an outgoing tide. Never surf rivermouths on Outgoing tides, unless it's just that good. Sharks can be a problem as with the currents. Be safe.
