🌊

The Wave

When it works the wave lines up on northwest to west-groundswells and cleans up with light northeast-to-north winds.

Best shape is usually at mid-to-high tide when the reef bites into a faster, hollower right.

🏄

Lineup Guide

The put-in is a steep cliff trail and the reef is jagged with frequent sea urchins - bring reef booties and expect sharp, unforgiving bottom contact.

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