Lineup Insights
The Wave
The spot favors southwest-grounded energy (short, punchy SW/NW groundswell) with clean sessions when northeast winds pull offshore.
Low-mid tides and a rising tide tendency help the jetty barrel and the inside wedges.
Lineup Guide
Localism around the jetty is intense - expect protective locals on the shallow left and crowded peaks early and on weekends.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
