A long sandy beach with fun, forgiving peaks, smallest by the harbour and bigger further along, good for beginners and intermediates on anything from a longboard to a shortboard. Best from mid to high tide. It faces north up Killala Bay, so it needs swell with plenty of north in it. Offshore in a southerly. By the harbour, a fast, hollow right breaks over reef in a solid northerly swell, for experienced surfers.
