The Wave

High tide is the useful window, and rising tide is the cleanest approach.

Walk through the resort or approach from Eimeo and cross the creek at low water.

Lineup Guide

The takeoff is shallow and intense, fins can hit rocks, and the line is usually quiet until a cyclone-season pulse brings interest.
