Always bigger and harder than it seem. Shallow reef. Quite hard to place at peak. Few days with perfect conditions (sw ground swell + ne offshore wind) Most of time it s pretty windy so the peak move and need make good choice of the wave. Bigger waves of the set tend to close out. Choose the third last one. Almost no surfer overthere nost of the time due to arsh condition, except when optimal, but no crowd anyway. Better from mid to high tide. Can support up to 3 meters, only for experienced riders when up to 1.5.
