general information

Between Yoff island and the mainland lies a fast point style break that provides a fun wall over sand covered rocks. Beware at low tides some of these rocks have sharp urchins. The island is almost connected to the peninsula and a paddle across is makeable only a couple of hundred metres, though longer than one would like. You can however ask fishermen take you there.
