From level advanced · Boardshort / lycraAccessible from advanced level: shoulder-high waves (0.9–1.4 m), enough volume to catch them, an onshore wind that chops up the surface, an unforgiving reef bottom. Below that, better to aim for more modest conditions.

Today's take

Well-shaped wave, nice long, clean swell from the S. Side-onshore wind that degrades the quality. Fair conditions, surfable but nothing special: fine for a practice session.
