The Wave

When swell pulses from the NE and trades ease or swing SW into offshore, the bay produces rippable, often short beach-break peaks.

Mid to high tide typically smooths the sections for more usable faces.

Lineup Guide

The lineup tightens quickly at peak days and watch for occasional shore rocks and jellyfish - give Popoia Island’s reef zones a wide berth.

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