Which beach most consistantly "Closes out" from what you've seen? :?

Wanda
I reckon it needs an artificial reef - when ever the swell gets above 5ft its generally crazy closeouts with no one surfing it, so a reef wouldn't go astray.
Thoughts anyone?

the only one i see really is the manly stretch and curley....
i think between south styne and the corso front is just a boring closeout

yeh defiantly wanda completly and utterly exposed yeh anything
over 5ft and closes out hard. though it is fun when most other places aren't picking up swell.

i voted manly stretch aswell.
saturday was a good example. was breaking very shallow too in the morn, had to hug the sand to get under. Barrels still to be had of course, just rarely makable. Infact a lip from a smaller 2ft wave landed on my back and i swear it almost snapped.

What's Manly stretch? Is that Manly to Queenscliff? That's too big a beach to call. I say Freshie is the closeout capital of the Northern Beaches. It's also the shittest at low tide, I haven't seen a beach that gets as dry as Freshie during a spring tide, sometimes I reckon you could almost walk to Queenscliff.

yeah ive gone head first into the sand at freshie when i went out for a bodysurf when it was 3ft. luckily my hands broke the fall.
