A world class point break on the outside of Witsand. It works in a North Wester and holds a really big wave. Big, powerful and fast down the line surfsailing happens here in Winter when the NW blows. This is also a popular surfing spot. The Crayfish Factory is the most surfed big wave spot with a lot of tales surrounding it. Directly in front of the Crayfish Factory righthander are breaking from 8 feet on over the kelp-covered reef. Waves at the factory can get as big as 15 feet, throwing a huge and powerful lip. There is an enormous suction and when you start to paddle for your take-off and suddenly see how the water disappears in front and underneath you. You fall all the way from the lip. If you don’t make it, you will meet with the kelp forcefully by virtue of the full power of the wave crashing down on you which is followed by the rest of the sets breaking on your head. When you get back up, you are in the channel. If you make the drop, you’ll have the ride of your life in front of a gigantic wall of water. When it’s big, the waves make a thundering sound as the thick lip crashes down.
