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.

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