Lineup Insights

The Wave

Steep stairs and shifting sandbars make the peak move day-to-day and create strong rips near the pilings.

Favours long-period SW-W swells with light E-NE offshore flow.

Mid to lower rising tides usually tune the sandbars for cleaner, hollower peaks.

Lineup Guide

Expect fast takeoffs and an aggressive local line-up when chest-overhead sets run.
