It is known as one of the stronger waves in Cape May County and can hold size better than nearby beachbreaks.
S/SE swells are the standard producers, though N/NE angles can also work depending on sandbar setup.
Access and lineup density are shaped by the Coast Guard base area and the walk in, so it often stays quieter than other South Jersey spots but can still get localized when it is on.
