The Rock surf guide

Surf: Likened to the Box in Western Australia thanks to the jacking take-off into a square barrel. Short, critical and occasionally sucks dry as tide increases and the break shifts closer to the beach. Super gnarly wave for pro’s only – upper size limit is unknown!. Needs an overhead swell to start breaking, plus a 9-10 second period so medium consistency only. Access: Best in autumn-winter. Directions: Drive through Hafnir. A couple of minutes later when you go under the power lines the second time you are there. Environment: Drive under 2 sets of power lines after Hafnir. 4WD needed to park on rock and lava beach.
