Lineup Insights

The Wave

Best days are long-period E-SE groundswells with light NW offshore breeze.

Inconsistent sandbars shift the peaks so arrive early and pick your peak (mid-tide to mid-high windows often produce fuller faces).

Lineup Guide

Heavy shorebreak and shallow sand/lava slabs make wipeouts high-consequence - expect frequent spinal-injury-grade shorebreaks and powerful rips near the main peaks.
