Yaroomba
Edit SpotAbout
Great little place to get away from everything and just have a surf.
Atmosphere:
This place is really incredible when it works, and great because its rarely crowded, give it try sometime.
Additional Info:
Look-out Carpark gets crowded on NE wind days as one of few spots to work with NE wind & swell
This place is a local's spot, barely anyone knows about it, so keep it quiet, this place is great when everywhere else is blown out.
