Muttonbird island
Edit SpotAbout
Worth a look if you're in the area
Atmosphere:
If the banks are good this place can really turn it on with fun little peaks all the way down the beach. Head to the rivermouth for the pick of the bunch
Additional Info:
Walk from the carpark 15 minutes along the beach to the rivermouth or if you have a 4X4 you could drive it although the sand gets pretty soft. Take the rip out, its easier than battling though the breaking waves
