Tide curve (forecast)
2.1 ftrising
Works best on SE groundswells with offshore/N or NNW breezes.
Mid to high tide often produces the cleanest, rideable peaks for longboards and small shortboards.
Crowds rise on big swell days but overall exposure is moderate compared with nearby headland spots.
Strong rip channels form along the long shallow bay - respect the rips and expect inconsistent peaks that migrate with the sandbar.
