Dongara Point
Edit SpotAbout
Its our local and yeah...its not bad ay good for a day of fun :) P.s Don't cause too much of a commotion out in the water because I've seen visiters sent in.
Atmosphere:
On the holidays heaps of tourists pass through here and that can get really annoying
Additional Info:
It's a fantastic wave on a good day which walls up nicely but mostly tends to be fat and a fade out.

Ask locals where the point lookout is. When you arrive at the point lookout you wil see a track (car) leading out towards the rock groin. After a 30 second driver you will come across a car park area. Park the car, jump over the rocks and tehre she is. After a short walk (bring thongs) to the tripod (you can hang thongs there) you are basically right there. (bring cheap thongs because minehave been stolen)
