“Been there a few times and it’s never been on. The last time some grumpy local aggressive moron asked me all sorts of hostile questions and threatened to assault me if I paddled out. Waves were rubbish anyway so I left the idiot alone in the car park. Wierd vibe. Looks quite far out to sea and heard there are sharks in the water and out.”
