The Wave

Park and check the Misty Cliffs access side before committing, because the break is hidden until the swell is on.

The clean window is northeast offshore with a southwest swell and a tide that is happier in the mid to high range.

🏄

Lineup Guide

Treat it as an uncrowded, high-consequence reef rather than a casual beach session.

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