this wave is crappy...if its good here go somewhere else and it`ll probably be better...
the northest part of the beach by the rocks is the cleanest.
Atmosphere
As with all beach breaks it depends alot on the sandbars. Sometimes it's been the best break in the area and preferred over Reve (believe it or not), sometimes it's just crap. Sandbars are usually at heir best in the fall, before the winter storms ruin the sandbars. Can also hold good sandbars for the ankleslop we get in the summer. One of the few spots that handle Northern wind with a Northern swell.
General
this place is a 3.choice kinda wave....if you feel like surfing when it`s windy you might wanna check it out... it is ok when everything else is a windy mess

northern winds - This is proabably the only place you can surf if you get a gale from the north. The northern part is a litle shelterd. The waves arnt that decent and close-out often. farther south is usually better
