general information
Knights has been handing out free spinal column alignments for some time now. Poor cousin to Newports Wedge in Cali but a solid bodyboarding wave of its own right. Solid SW swells rattle across the Great Australian Bight and make landfall here on this coast just to the south of Adelaide.
There are a lot of frustrated surfers and some very fickle waves around Adelaide and as one of the more consistent spots, Knights can be very crowded when it's on. Mainly a bodyboarding spot but definetly surfable when it isn't grinding at 10 feet.
