Lineup Insights

🌊

The Wave

The break prefers solid W-WSW groundswells (longer periods), cleans up with E-NE offshore breezes, and tends to perform best on lower to mid tides when the jetty-driven wedges hold a steep face.

Check the live tide windows in the app to time your session perfectly.

🏄

Lineup Guide

Jetty deflection creates two peaky zones that can slam into hollow right-breaking wedges, and rip currents near the jetty are common during big west swells.

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