Ok so lets face it. The spot is not G-land but manalive, when you are stuck in swell starved Powell River for the winter, it might as well be. I've had a heap of fun here. Bring a big board or a fish becase you will be surfing a lot of reforms. The best time to hit it is on the trailing edge of a howling storm. You can get some pretty fun rides. Have and awesome session.
Best on an low incomming tide. Nice beach break with good walls. It is possible to get some big rides here.only park in gravel praking lot, or owner of Pacific Rim Resort will tow your car.When it's really big it's pretty hard to get out - try North Chesterman's instead.Very steep at low tide.Better with upcoming tide.
When you first come down the stairs and onto the beach right infront is a right, there are a few underwater boulders to watch out for.
If you walk down the beach past the river that runs into the ocean you will come to sandy point.
The waves there can get hollow and there are less people there
Since it is sheltered this spot can be nice and clean when the surf is big or stormy.Good winter break.Two beaches that go forever meet at a sandbar that disappears with tides out to an island. Chesterman south is good to learn, and some bigger waves can be found at the north end.
