Lineup Insights
The Wave
Waves clean up on S-SE long-period swells with light N-NW offshore breezes.
Mid to high rising tide usually firms the right-hand peel, while low falling tides expose reef and increase hazard.
Lineup Guide
The approach is rugged (dirt road and short trail) and entry/exit demand care over rocky reef - expect limited facilities and occasional monk seals ashore.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
