Rhodanthe Pier
Edit SpotAbout
This wave gets heavy with size. The most powerful wave Ive surfed on the east coast next to reef road when its maxing.
Atmosphere:
Location of the infamous surf ghetto an the down under resturaunt. Egg on that burger mate?
Additional Info:
All tides will break here, but it depends on the sandbars and the size as well as direction of the swell. Certain direction swells will be better at high tide(NE) and some are better at low to mid(SE/S)
