We are heading East next week. Can you boulder on the rocks around Elephant Rock before paddling out for a surf session.

Elephant Rock offers an amazing view if you scramble up to the top, but the rock itself is quite crumbly in places, so technical bouldering is not highly recommended without crash pads. The surf break below is an excellent, uncrowded beginner to intermediate wave, though getting into the water requires a bit of a rock jump.

Watch out for crocodiles in the lagoon right behind the rock! Do not walk through the stagnant water at dusk to get to the surf spot.
