English (Traduisez ce texte en Français): This beach has a nice right hand point break which is fun and great for a mini mal or long board. In the middle of the beach you can get some nice rights and lefts (mostly rights when I have been there), some can run for a couple of hundred metres on a good day. These break on a sandy bottom with many sand bars all around.
It is not a fast or powerful wave and the wipeouts are forgiving.
Parking is pretty limited so if you are going, go during the weekdays. Gets packed during school holidays but is pretty quiet during the weekdays outside of schoolies.
Last time I was there I saw many pods of dolphins, however normally where there are dolphones there are sharks. Typical rules in these waters... don't surf super early or super late.
All in all a consistent break and great for a long board or mini mal.

Général
English (Traduisez ce texte en Français): When you’re too old or too tired to deal with the menacing crowds at the pass, go beyond the headland to Wategos. Friendly crowds and multiple peaks (mostly right) compensate for the chronic lack of parking. On a good summer day, don’t even try driving there after 9AM. Leave your car at the pass, and take the well marked half mile trail from the parking lot to Wategos.

Oh and there's the sharks - Last year in October I had a 10ft Shark swim under my board here (supposedly a White). It flanked the line of surfers and passed between us and the beach. Great place but sharky.
