This Mornington Peninsula surf beach is as good as it gets! When you arrive, park your car, face the ocean and head for the right hand side of the car park. It is here that the best break can be found. It is a right hander that breaks off the sand, but you will need a south-westerly swell and north east wind on the low tide to get it cranking. One thing to bear in mind is that locals run regular competitions, so you may be forced to wait until they are finished before getting into the sections that you want.
