Werri Point is a magic little point break, with a pretty easy jump off the rocks. Usually.

When the surf’s up big, it’s a different story. Picking the gap in the mammoth sets, trying not to get knocked over by the knee deep wash across the platform, then the furious paddle to get into position…

Full credit to old mate in this shot. He calmly surveyed the sets for about 10 or 15mins before picking his moment to plunge in. And that’s the only way you can be with the ocean like this.
