Lineup Insights

The Wave

East wind is the clean lane, west swell is the main trigger, and a mid to rising tide usually keeps the sandbars a bit more manageable.

Check the Brighton Road carpark and the central foreshore if you want to read the banks.

Summer can dump and close out for beginners.

Lineup Guide

Expect bigger waves, strong rips, shallow sandbars, heavy parking pressure, and a patrolled beach that still gets crowded when it turns on.
