From level expert · Boardshort / lycraAccessible from expert level: head-high waves (1.1–1.8 m), enough volume to catch them, an unforgiving reef bottom. Below that, better to aim for more modest conditions.

Today's take

Well-shaped wave, decent swell from the SSE. Cross-shore wind that ruffles the surface a little. Fair conditions, surfable but nothing special: fine for a practice session.
