Lineup Insights
The Wave
It favours long-period North/NNE groundswells with offshore southerly winds and will work across tides, though very large events are the primary window.

Lineup Guide
Access is awkward - the break sits off the Hilo breakwall and is most often paddled or towed from Hilo Harbor, and when it runs it can be powerful with rocks, rips and limited lineup space.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
