Lineup Insights

The Wave

Best regular windows are NNE→NE groundswells with WNW-to-W winds (offshore) and low→mid tides favor the outside bar.

On smaller short-period swells the inside peaks spread out more.

The south end’s outside sandbar is the day-maker and can focus powerful sets, so expect concentrated crowds and a choppy paddling zone when it fires.

Rips form near the deeper channels.
