Surf Guide
A bowling right-hand point that rightly occupies a special place in the hearts of Australian surfing. It is a rite of passage for Sydney surfers to make the eight-hour all-night drive when the place is on. The wave itself refracts around and a headland and creates a perfect, rolling bowl. Ride it and you'll marvel at how, like a slingshot, you keep generating power.
