“It gets really good at the point! Getting in and out of the water mid way up the point can be tricky. The rip next to the rocks makes paddling seem effortless. The locals can be jerks, but they can also be really cool. Just be respectful, it goes a long way here. I just caught it double over head with only two others out for three hours!”
