never heard of anyone surfing there but its not my neck of the woods.

What i do know however, is that coney beach sucks. If your gonna go there you might as well just go the extra half a mile to rest bay, which also sucks, but not as much.

"25minute paddle... ...only accessible 1hr either side of low tide... ...will kill you... dont surf here alone..." etc.

Someone doesn't want you surfing there!
I mean, I've heard of warning about secret spots and protection..but

Danger of death...you 'will' die :roll:


Plus...the reef from the first picture looks pretty mellow? :?
