Expect a very quiet line-up, sand and rock patches, SE wind as the clean side, and SW to NW swell as the useful window.
Tide is secondary here: what matters is whether enough water is over the sand and rock patches for the line to stand up.
The line only really makes sense when the face is actually standing up.
