Lineup Insights

The Wave

Best windows are long-period SW groundswells with light NE offshore breeze.

Lineup Guide

The spot lives and dies by the nearby Surfside jetty and Anaheim Bay entrance-swells that rebound off the jetty or wrap into the bay make short, powerful peaks and can pile into a small crowd.

Occasional water-quality issues near the bay mouth also affect access.

Mid-tide to mid-high often focuses the peaks on the shallow sandbars and keeps the takeoffs steep.
