Though I've heard the Bells reference to Point Break before, I'm struggling to find any evidence the ending scenes of this film were in fact filmed at Bells. IMDB fliming locations for Point Break lists Bondi Beach. Rather than remove the content, I've added a citation required tag. -- Longhair 22:12, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

The article says they weren't filmed at Bells. Rather, it was set at Bells, and I'm fairly sure the film credits suggested it was filmed there. If you have a search for this, I suspect you'll find some better sources documenting the contradiction. Ambi 08:40, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Little correction: Quote from: http://walkabout.com.au/locations/VICBellsBeach.shtml Easter Festival Most famously, this is the site of a surfing contest which was first held in 1962, although the competition attained a more official status when it became an interstate Easter event in 1963, making it the longest-running professional surfing event in the nation and the world. The consistency and excellence of the surf saw Bells become the site of the world amateur board-riding championships in 1970 and, in the early 1970s, the first surfing reserve in the world. It has since become a fixture on the world professional circuit. In the year 2000 it was listed as a site of historical significance by the Victorian branch of the National Trust.

[edit] Renaming

Should this article be at Bells Beach, Victoria? -- Longhair 05:03, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

It's a beach, not a locality. :) Ambi 06:19, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Waimea

No way Bells is bigger than Waimea, bro. --The Yar 13:51, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
