Located on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Narrowneck is a quality reef that breaks over a reef and sand bottom. The reef here is artificial, created to try and help solve the overcrowding problems on the coast. The waves here are pretty easy to surf and break for up to 100 meters providing some great sections for manoeuvres.
