Pretty small pocket to take off in. Some barrels on take off, then slows up so you can hit it. Sometimes the offshore wind can be heavy. If you fall on the drop you'll be pulled quickly into the rocks. There is no real channel and getting out of the water can be brutal on a big day. You got a choice of getting in through the closed out beach or you can negotite the rocks and rip on the point. Whatever both choices suck. If your going to get out on the point then be carefull: lots of rocks on the beach so when it gets big just point yourself toward the beach and take it.
Works well before and after big swell has passed. Usually pick up anything at all, so when other spots are flat as a lake, this should still be surfable. Semi points coming off the little rocks on the left and right hand side of the first beach by the parking lot, but for better beach break walk down the beach until you find a peak you like.
Minutes Surf Spot Guide, Canada Minutes is a legendary right-hand point break tucked inside Cow Bay in Nova Scotia that delivers long, peeling waves off a rock-shelf reef.

I used to use this beach when I was first learning how to surf and wasn't comfortable with the big surf at L-Town on a heavy day. The waves are smaller and easier to handle for people just learning. I named it "Plan B" because I don't think it really has a name.The beach features some rocks on the left side and a mouth of a river on the right side. Seaweed tends to gather on the left side of the beach and gets annoying.
Good place to go if every other place is closing out. It has little wind and has really clear water.
L-Town is descent break with cold water. Waves will breaks at the point and at the beach anywhere between 1.0 m+. The place is magnet for waves and can be head high or over at 1.4 m with a good period because of the bottom contours.The right is slow and short on most days but can get exceptionally long. The left can barrel. Water gets warm in summer similar to NJ -2C and about the same in winter. If you're looking for a remote getaway or some Canadian/Scottish culture this would be ideal. Halifax is great city. Otherwise, there are more consistent breaks elsewhere.If the waves are weak check out Martinique 25 min down the road its cleaner there on shoppy days.
Typical beach break, that will close out on larger swells. Because of location, doesn't break all that often, but after a Nor' Easter or Hurricane will sure to be working.
Park in the abandon store parking lot and paddle across the river or go around the corner and you will see a dirt road to your right. Take that road for about 50m park in the field and walk over the dune.
It's a river surfing spot. It's a permanent wave in the middle of St-Laurent river, in the middle of Montreal. The only though thing about this spot is to catch the wave.
