Except for the best days you will not have much competition for the waves which is the best thing about Davenport. Even on so-so days you can have fun because there is not anyone yelling. The bad thing about D-Port is that it is 10 miles out of town and a long drive to find out that the conditions suck again. It is always worth a look if you are looking for a more remote spot to surf.
I also kayak surf- sorry- The rights on the north side of the bay are idea for kayaking and usually board surfer don't surf this part of the bay so few if any conflicts.”
