Mostly shoulder high and five out which is a crowd for here. 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 and making the usual take-off spot next to the big rock very choppy. Fossil Point had also been ok at high tide a few hours earlier.
