The Wave

The break favors W-NW groundswells and cleans up with east to northeast offshore breezes.

It can work at most tides but often fires best on a rising-to-mid tide when swell aligns.

Lineup Guide

The approach is remote - expect a long walk or a paddle around Point No Pass, an uneven rocky reef and strong local consequences for mistakes.

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