The Wave
The Gravels sector sits up against a narrow cove and can produce very shallow, board-breaking barrels - watch the inside rocks at low tide and expect heavy local traffic when barrels show.
It typically prefers S-SW to WNW groundswells with light E-NE offshore breezes and performs best around mid to mid-high tides when the peaks hold and the shorebite is reduced.
