The Wave
North and northwest winds are the clean offshore calls.
South to south-southwest swell is the main trigger, with low to mid tide and a rising tide helping the wave keep shape.

Lineup Guide
Access is restricted by the Demons Bluff closure, so the break is reached by a difficult walk or by water rather than an easy beachside stroll; rips, undertow, localism, and cliff hazard are part of the setup.
