Lineup Insights

🌊

The Wave

Best raw swell energy arrives from the NW (long-period winter groundswell) with light E-ENE trades for clean, offshore face.

Mid to mid-high tides generally moderate the shorepound, while very high NW pulse swells create hazardous shorebreak.

🏄

Lineup Guide

Strong shorebreak and frequent rips make the central lineup unforgiving at size.

Rocky points on both ends can hold cleaner peelings but require careful entry.
