Lineup Insights
The Wave
Works best on long-period SE groundswells with light NW offshore.
Mid-tide to rising-tide windows tend to lengthen peaks, and NW winds clean the face.
Lineup Guide
Lineup is usually uncrowded but watch for persistent rips and an intermittent rocky band near the shore that causes unpredictable peaks and punchy takeoffs.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
