Reef Power
Edit SpotAbout
This spot is great! Especially in the winter months. On a good day comparble to Cronulla Point! Nearly every wave you get a barrell!
Atmosphere:
The atmosphere is great the locals are cool. Just don't get on their bad side.
Additional Info:
When you take off on the wave don't try and bottom turn cos you will get smashed. It's for bodyboarders only. Too sucky for surfers.
