Boiler bay
Edit SpotAbout
place can be full on dangerous...on the first day it was ever surfed (many years ago) a guy dislocated his knee on the reef...dont try this place if your not confident about your ability...saw it on a clean nw swell and offshore winds...spectacular!
Atmosphere:
the atmosphere of this spot is totaly differnt than surf a beach break. People are on the cliffs watching you yelling at you like what are you doing. and then the park rangers are all yelling at you to like get the hell out of the water. they only do this when it is big and skecthy.
Additional Info:
park your car buy the bathrooms suit up and walk up to the hiway and shimy your self down the cliff until you get to the water.
