Beach break real close to beach. Blows out easily, though trades generally go into the face. Top-to-bottom tubes. Shfty, with plenty of current. Show up ready to paddle. If you get swept too far north, there's some reef to worry about.
Atmosphere
Reminds me of other famous tubes, just shorter rides.
