Lineup Insights
The Wave
Best surf comes from long-period W-NW to WNW swells with lighter E-ESE winds (offshore for the bay) - cleaner right-hand peaks appear on mid-to-high tide, though small days can be rideable across tide cycles.
Check the live tide windows in the app to time your session perfectly.
Lineup Guide
The approach through rough lava-road and sparse parking keeps crowds thin but also means limited emergency access.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
