The Wave

Best with a north swell and southwest offshore wind.

Mid tide is a little cleaner, but the break stays fairly workable through the cycle.

🏄

Lineup Guide

The reef, rocks, and rips mean it deserves normal east-coast Terceira caution.

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