🌊

The Wave

Best days arrive on W-WNW groundswells with light E to ENE offshore winds.

The break works on all tides though higher tides are gentler for learners.

🏄

Lineup Guide

A few shallow sandbars inside the cove focus energy into short, punchy peaks and throw rips toward the headlands - expect quick shifts in peak location after storms.

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