About

Watch out for the rocks, at times the coffee rock can be more dangerous than it appears. Entry and exit can be difficult and watch out diving headfirst after wiping out. When the sand is generous, no worries about any of this it is as safe as anywhwhere.

Sunday mornings can be frustrating with the surf club overrun with nippers and surf life saves. Sometimes they take over the spot so be wary of lifesavers that hate surfers.

Atmosphere:
Alex Headland gets as crowded as anywhere when the southerlies are blowing and gets a bad rep for this fact. This wave can be a Saviour when the rest of the coast is blown out and the points down't have enough swell to work. With long and fast walls a fantastic ride can be had by all.

Additional Info:
Named after longtime local longboarder Murray. He will be seen out there most days of the year. Still rips despite his years. Getting more waves than most of the other surfers in the water combined. Usually spotted hot dogging or with toes over the noes.
