Moana Beach
Edit SpotAbout
I think this spot is great for begginers and is not that dangerous at all except there supposably is blue ringed octopus within the rock pools but in generall you wouldn't surf there!
Atmosphere:
The first time a surfed here was great. No localism problems at all and the water is very warm! If you surf near others they don't mind at all!
Additional Info:
Park your car near the boardwalk as the best waves are straight down from it. Near the boardwalk are nice right handers but if you surf straight out from the surf life saving club there are some quite good lefties aswell! I advise you to go out to the back set as most other sets just brake over you and you don't get a joyful ride!
