🌊

The Wave

When the Cove lights up it prefers direct W-WNW groundswells (shorter-period NWs can work) with offshore breeze from the E-NE and cleaner surf near low or falling tide.

Check the live tide windows in the app to time your session perfectly.

🏄

Lineup Guide

Crowds, a cobble/shelf bottom and a busy parking lot make mistakes costly - expect tight lineup etiquette and swift local pressure on good days.

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