Very little protection so you are looking for an offshore or at least a southerly wind. Can get gnarly when ig gets big and it can break hard but generally rather mild.
Atmosphere
Great early morning with SW or W wind and 6 - 8 ft swell
General
Rather nice if your i the area and conditions are right
