The Blowhole

Edit Spot
About

It breaks very fast along a sharp reef out from the blowhole. Popular with bodyboarders probably because of shallowness. Go jump of the blowhole if it isn't breaking, it's a lot of fun. There's also a fun beachie nearby.

Additional Info:
Park in the blowhole carpark or on the rise above the beach.
