Yeah mate the break on Sams Island was cranking when we drove past and I dare say the Angel Island break would have been insane for those willing to venture out that far in the crappy conditions.
Nah no crocs mate, know a few guys that surf might have to see if they went out. Couldn't see anyone out at sams when we went past though. There was one boat out so I'd say it could have been surfers.
