Lineup Insights
The Wave
West, southwest, or northwest swell keeps it alive, east wind cleans the face, and low to mid tide is the reliable window.
Check the live tide windows in the app to time your session perfectly.
Lineup Guide
Stay close to the parking lot and give the lighthouse side a wide berth, because the reef is short and the rips can move you fast.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
