Breaker Reef
Edit SpotAbout
I have never been able to surf this spot because of the location. However, I have seen a foto of a person surfing this wave. It had a nice shape and was over head.
Additional Info:
There are two reefs here. Breaker Reef North & South which are well known dive sites.
This area is fairly isolated so special consideration needs to be given to whether conditions.
Sections of the reef can have a lot of line and net fishermen trying their luck if the weather is good.
There is a lot of old lines and nets in this area so care needs to be taken to avoid entanglement.
This area is prone to large swells that may be larger than the water movement visible from the surface.
There have been numerous reports of reasonable sized sharks being sighted in this area. Normal shark precautions should always be applied when in this area.
The area is prone to quick weather changes. Tidal flow may separate surfers from boats.

You need a large private boat to reach this site. The closest convenient pier is either at Hebe Haven (Pak Sha Wan) or Sai Kung.
It is important to understand that this area is very exposed. Any easterly wind will normally stir up this area making it rough for boats to get there.
This area is considered very remote and close to the Hong Kong, Chinese border.
