GENERAL
"Blue House", named after the blue house that overlooks the wave, is a wedgy lefthander that breaks over a rock reef. It is best at 1m to 1.5m at high tide with a southerly wind and is characterised by a peaky takeoff that gives you heaps of speed for your first bottom turn. Watch out for the reef on the inside and kick-off before it shuts down.
