Sandon Point is a surf spot located on the eastern coast, known for its right-hand point break. This place tends to attract a lot of surfers, especially those looking for a challenging ride. The spot can be quite popular, so expect to share the waves with a crowd, which can sometimes lead to a tense atmosphere.

The surf here can be pretty rewarding but is definitely for the experts. The optimal swell direction is from the east, and it handles swell sizes of around 3ft (about 0.9 meters). You'll see the best action during low tide, but it can also work during mid and high tide. The waves break over an uneven reef, making take-offs tricky as they transition from fun walls to heavy lines. With a preferred wind direction from the southwest, you might find yourself in the midst of powerful waves that seem to ramp up quickly, so be prepared for a ride that can get intense.

Locals usually dominate the area, and they aren't really tolerant of anyone who isn't in sync with the spot. It's often referred to as "the Jetty," which speaks to its crowded nature and consistent surf. Stay aware and be sure you're comfortable in the water, as being out of your depth here can lead to some tough situations.
