Lineup Insights
The Wave
Works best on northwest-to-west swells at low tide with east/offshore winds.
Mid-to-high tide usually closes the peak and onshore westerlies wreck the face.
Lineup Guide
The line-up sits tight to jagged rock and a reinforced breakwater - expect tricky entries, serious consequence on missed takeoffs, and guarded locals near the jetty access.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
