Brighton
Edit SpotAbout
The jetty gives it a good atmosphere. Must be full stormy for it to work.
Atmosphere:
NO paddling because you can jump off the jetty. It is good viewing on the jetty. Once you have finished having a surf there are plenty of little shops where you can buy food like chips or burgers etc.
Additional Info:
Only works in stormy conditions 25 knots sw. Fun wave punchy wave when it does work. fun on low tide.
