Lineup Insights
The Wave
When it works it prefers long-period southwest groundswells with light N/NE winds.
Mid to high tide typically fattens peaks at the reef/shore break junction while very low tides expose more rock.
Lineup Guide
The lineup sits remote and low-traffic but carries real consequence: hidden rocks, strong rip channels and limited public access make mistakes costly.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
