A right over uneven reef and sand on Adelaide's mid coast that needs a large WSW swell to reach up the gulf. When it does, an east wind and a rising mid tide give long walls running through to the inside shorey. It holds up better than its neighbours, so it is the busiest break in town when on. More reefs lie between Seaford and the Trough.
