From level advanced · Boardshort / lycraAccessible from advanced level: shoulder-high waves (0.7–1.1 m), fairly forgiving, a long, powerful swell (12 s) that pushes hard, an onshore wind that chops up the surface. Below that, better to aim for more modest conditions.

Today's take

Moderate wave, nice long, clean swell from the WSW. Onshore wind that chops up the waves. Fair conditions, surfable but nothing special: fine for a practice session.
