Hand-calibrated spot: orientation, ideal swell, tide and hazards documented. The rating still comes from a global wave model — always check on site. How we compute ratings →

From level advanced · Boardshort / lycraAccessible from advanced level: shoulder-high waves (0.9–1.4 m), enough volume to catch them, a long, powerful swell (13 s) that pushes hard. Below that, better to aim for more modest conditions.

Today's take

Well-shaped wave, nice long, clean swell from the SSW. Cross-shore wind that ruffles the surface a little. Good conditions: worth the trip, suitable from advanced level.
