🌊

The Wave

Best practical windows are E-SE groundswells with light NW-to-N winds.

Low to mid tides often concentrate the peaks but timing and bar movement change the best peel from day to day.

🏄

Lineup Guide

Shallow sandbars and the Colorado River mouth create fast, punchy peaks that can close out and grind over very little water - watch for strong rips and shallow takeoff zones.

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