Patons Rock Left after High Tide

| Average rating: 2.2 | (use stars to vote) |
A rare shoulder to head-high day at Patons Rock, spoiled earlier on by a king tide that caused waves to back off (it's usually regarded as a high-tide break but this tide was too big). Also, the big tide liberated a lot of stranded driftwood making it potentially dangerous.
