Description
This spot is a beach break with sand in the middle and rocks on either sides. It works well with smaller swells, especially from the NW, and minimal wind. The cliffs create lefty wedges, but rights are also available. Wave quality depends on the shifting sandbanks. Due to its narrow bay, it can get crowded in the summer.
