It is a popular beach for surfers, consisting of a right hand reef-like wave which rolls over small boulder-like rocks for about 200m.

[2] The western side of the bay culminates in large boulders believed to have rolled down from the top of the hill.

The eastern side of the bay consists of rocks, flanked briefly by a concrete wall built to prevent erosion of the slope.

Running above the Bay is the railway line joining George, Wilderness, Sedgefield and ultimately Knysna.

A concrete jetty, flanked by a sandy-bottomed rock pool, looks out across the bay and is a popular place for watching the surfers and for fishing.
