Lineup Insights
The Wave
The peak lights up on long-period W-NW winter groundswells with clean NE to ENE offshore breezes.
It generally prefers mid-to-high tides when the point shapes longer walls and the inside reef is less gutting.
Lineup Guide
Shallow reef and a strong outside channel mean getting caught inside can be painful - respect the takeoff zone and local priority.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
