Fast shallow reef-break that can deliver a long right with hollow sections on a good day. Left can be good, but gets closey with size Getting in and out is sketchy!

There is another reef outside of Downend called Oyster Falls - North Devons big wave spot. It only breaks when there is a big swell running and has only been surfed a few times.
On bigger days it makes a good indicator spot for Downend
