Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
The dominant wind comes from the southeast to west, often side-onshore for this exposed beach break, making the launch direct from the beach. The navigation area extends over a wide beach with small to medium-sized waves depending on the swell, ideal for wave kiting when the southwest swell arrives. The launch area is spacious, not too crowded, but watch for gusts if buildings are nearby. The water state is chop with waves breaking on both sides, good at all tide stages. For riders, head upwind to the north to avoid rocky areas and enjoy flatter sections between the waves. Downwinders are possible to neighboring spots like Big Bay, but check conditions to avoid drifting too far.
