Blacks (north of Pebbly)

Pebbly Beach, Australia

YouTubeWatch on YouTube CustomizeCustomize this spot

45-min walk north from Pebbly Beach: intense take-off into a hardcore barrel sucking along the reef, then a short cutback section into deep water. It sucks dry when you're caught inside. It works best on a SE swell with W winds around mid tide. Watch for: shelf drops into deep water, rocks, sharks.
