A powerful and demanding reef break that hosts the WSL Championship Tour. The wave offers both lefts and rights, with the left being the more challenging and barreling option. Located in shark-populated waters with strong currents, it's one of Australia's heaviest waves. The surrounding Margaret River wine region contrasts with the wild, rugged coastline.
