🌊

The Wave

When an east to southeast long-period swell arrives with a WNW-NW wind the beach produces the best, punchiest peaks.

Mid incoming tide often brings the most organized sandbars.

🏄

Lineup Guide

Watch for strong rip lanes and occasional rocky bits near the jetty-these steer peaks and make holding position important.

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