The Wave

When a South-Southeast long-period swell arrives with light North-Northwest wind the reefs straighten into fast, hollow lefts and rights.

Mid to high tide often softens the takeoff while very low tides expose more reef.

Lineup Guide

Shallow reef and nearby rocks make wipeouts consequential and crowds concentrate at the obvious peaks near the point, so local entry and exit choices matter.

Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
