 +As with other river estuaries around the world, we have noticed that they can sometimes provide **exceptionally long surfing rides** on occassion which are also generally **more kind than beach break** waves.
  
 **Mark Sundin**: "This is a bit of a mystery break in some respects, it's coded as a '​novelty spot' on surf websites, which means when everything else is being obliterated by a big southerly swell or East Coast Low, it's surfable for the board riders. For a kayaker, it mostly provides the sort of gentle, barely breaking waves … They'​re slow, easy & as consequence-free as you ever get on a paddle craft. On a decent day however, it can be epic & every bit as demanding as a beach break."​ **Mark Sundin**: "This is a bit of a mystery break in some respects, it's coded as a '​novelty spot' on surf websites, which means when everything else is being obliterated by a big southerly swell or East Coast Low, it's surfable for the board riders.
