Lineup Insights
The Wave
When a long-period SW/W swell arrives with light NE offshore winds the right-hand peel cleans up.
Mid-tide to slightly rising tides usually keep the peaks fuller.

The spot is remote - expect a 20-40 minute walk from the nearest parking and submerged rocks near the takeoff that punish sloppy paddling.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
