There's always time for a Beng Beng's session. A reasonably long wave that offers a succession of feathering sections for both down the line and top to bottom hits. The wave is best known for its rippability; and under the right conditions can provide the occasional barrel section. Set in a very scenic and tranquil bay, Beng Beng's is always worth a look but is ideal from chest high to just over head high. When the swell maxes it out, it’s time to head to Ebay. Certainly a great warm up location that’s protected from the southerly winds, works on all tides (which is a bonus) - and is very consistent.
