Small soarable bowl. Great to play around in. Wind ideal when coming from island out to sea. But direction can be hard to pick unless you climb to the top of the bluff.

Takeoff either to the left of the top carpark, as close to the cliff edge as possible. Beware that this is a venturi area though, so windspeed can only be judged by walking to the bottom of the cliff or along the track to the top of the bluff. If too strong to launch here, walk to both of cliff, and launch there. Wind is weaker. Landing is across the road from the top carpark, in open paddock. Or if enough height is achieved, in second large open paddock past the bottom carpark. Follow signs from Victor Harbor to the Bluff.

Venturi bowl on takeoff. Rotor behind rocks at very left of soarable ridge. Wind has been known to switch direction 180 degrees at random times. Keep a close eye on weather.
