The Wave

When it works the break prefers long-period W-WNW swells with light E/NE winds for cleaner barrels.

Mid-to-low tides tighten the sandbar and sharpen peaks while high tide generally softens them.

Lineup Guide

The Bowl holds the punch here - shallow sandbars and a tendency to close out create punchy, local - heavy peaks and occasional strong rips.

Be cautious near the jetty and respect the local lineup.
