Kennington Cove is a sick Surf spot.
Very consistent surf, it is a short wave but it stands up tall and is pretty strong. Very underestimated zone.
Average 4-6 foot waves, but they can be 10 plus.
The place is closed in fall until spring but local surfers are trying to get a key for the gate.There are two beaches there, and crazy epic scenery.
