Scottburgh Point Surf Photo: 'Scottburgh Point ' by Rhys Scott

Scottburgh point runs off an outcrop of rock, jutting out to set up a 100 - 150m running wave much like the jump rock at 'Snapper'. It is very consistent, the banks caused by the rocks holding up even in onshore conditions. High performance at 6-8ft, but is super fun 5ft and under.
