Probably the best rule of thumb is the Train for South easters, Central St (a couple of kms north of the Train) for north easters and if its south or south west then either the Grand Hotel or Shearwater (further north again). If you're lucky with a south easter and a high tide (over 1.5 metres) then you can get a great run from Central St across the sandbank to the far beach. We were all at Central today

I came to the Jenifer Ave and stayed there. Cant say it was really good, but it was ok.
Next time will try central.

Hi Nic,
I gather it was you I spoke to today. I was the noobie at Jenifer today. Nice to meet you

Yeah it was dodgy at jennifer yesterday that tide was insane and strange wind strength. Hopefully the SE will bring more enjoyment from this afternoon onwards
