Lineup Insights

The Wave

Look for southwest swell, east to northeast wind, and a mid-to-high tide window with a rising push.

Lineup Guide

The beach sits right next to Big Bay, so it is easy to access and easy to compare against the busier neighbor.

The bottom is sandy with some rock, the wave is short and punchy, and it can still be quiet enough on weekdays that the local kids think it is good even when it hardly ever gets truly good.
