Lineup Insights
Lineup Guide
The beach sits north of the port, has multiple entry points and parking by the harbor, and exposes rocks at low tide with seaweed on the shoreline.
It is a lively place rather than a quiet one, so expect port traffic, people-watching, and a practical low-tide rock check before paddling out.
