🌊

The Wave

When it works the sandbar favors west-to-southwest groundswells and cleans up with E-NE winds (true offshore on this stretch).

Low-mid tide with a rising tide generally produces the best, punchy short rides.

🏄

Lineup Guide

Parking is tight and approaches drop into a shallow, cold beach with nearby rocks and occasional pollution - plan for a short walk and a thick wetsuit.

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