general information

A rare gem of a left hander suited best for longboards. The name comes from a very difficult to observe star that can be seen from the southern hemisphere. The waters around here with a near total lack of atmospheric pollution make for excellent stargazing.

A boat crew in the area just happened to be passing through when a clean pulse of southerly swell lit up this point with 3 footers that ran for 300 metres along a razor sharp bank. Very sharky and very rare.

Ensure your papers are in order with Reunion before landing / surfing this area.
