General Description
Fun beach break especially if you enjoy a longboard. Any tide you'll get something but better on low outgoing. Usually the summer will have 1 or 2 good longboard days every week (2-4 feet@10-12s). Swell consistency increases from septempter into the winter. Doesn't hold anything 5ft+ without being blown out or choppy usually. Perfect for learning and chill sessions in the summer.
