Lineup Guide
The lineup is tight and hazard - heavy-shallow reef, urchin fields and strong rip channels mean consequence for misplaced takeoffs and crowded peak jockeying.
Tide matters less here than at many reef breaks-Pavilions works across most stages, but very low tides thin the takeoff zones.
It consistently responds to long-period north-NNE groundswells.
Morning sessions before the trade winds build (and days with southerly winds) produce the cleanest, most memorable lefts.
