Skirza Surf Guide
This classic left point only wakes when the north shore is maxing out in winter's large northerly and northeasterly swells. The long, south facing boulder point fires off barreling lefts that can peel for over two hundred meters. The fast, heavy waves, tricky access, plus rock / boulder bottom and remoteness of the spot means best left to the experts. There is only a tiny parking spot here - so park respectfully.
