Five out on Christmas eve is as crowded as I have ever seen it here. A few bigger set waves start to spill outside the bay but generally shoulder high long lefts. Mellow waves were best suited to a longboard but the inside section was a bit steeper and fairly sheltered from the strong WSW winds that are kicking up white caps our to sea.
