Deep water beach, water has poor visibility, large chop most of the time. Definitely not for beginners. Several submerged reefs to eat your board. Lots of sea life turtles sometimes dolphins, but also sharks are common and stone fish have been found in the launch area. NE winds tend to blow in schools of jelly fish, but the locals don't seem to mind.
