Lineup Insights
The Wave
This spot only really wakes up on a big swell at low tide, with south to southwest wind the clean side.
Check the live tide windows in the app to time your session perfectly.
Lineup Guide
The launch is tied to the port of Ciboure / Socoa area, so parking, restaurants, and the harbor setting are part of the decision as much as the wave itself.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
