Horseshoe Bay Surf Photo: 'Empty Horseshoe Bay' by Rob Davies
An overhead day with almost 2m of long-fetch NE anticyclonic swell, typical of summer. Big sets that broke a long way outside meant it was not too appealing at Horseshoe Bay so we headed to nearby Tocata on the other side of the enormous headland. Tocata handles bigger swells much better.
