Lineup Insights

The Wave

When the swell is from the West-NW and morning winds trend East (light/terräl), the sandbar peaking near mid-tide produces the cleanest, longer rides.

Surf schools often fill the lineup on mellow days.

Bigger SW groundswells can make the lefts steep and fast.

Lineup Guide

Expect shifting sandbars and an active rip/undertow directly in front of the lifesaving tower.
