🌊

The Wave

The break favors NW-W groundswells with winds from the E-SE for clean offshore conditions.

Low to mid incoming tides usually hold better shape while large W/SW pulses can also light up a south-end left.

Lineup Guide

The point at the north end creates a shallow channel and strong rips - expect tricky entries and punchy takeoffs near the rocks and busy lineups when it’s up.

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