Lineup Insights
The Wave
Best windows are long-period S-SSE groundswells with a steady NW offshore.
Mid-to-high tides usually firm the peeling sections while very low tide can make the takeoffs mushier.
Lineup Guide
The pier and its small jetties focus peely peaks but also spawn strong rips and crowded lineups on good days.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
