Lineup Insights
The Wave
When winter NW groundswells hit and the tide is low-to-rising, the wave peels deep and hollow.
Southerly winds (S-SE) tend to offshore and clean the face, while outgoing tides produce the strongest, hazardous rips.
Lineup Guide
The lineup sits tight against boulders and a marked inside rock-wipeouts often mean rock contact and strong cross-currents, and access is via Marine Drive through the Presidio with limited parking.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
