Nearly-open ocean, and any swells create bad shore break you must bodydrag out through before getting in your straps. No rideable surf. Wind-driven chop. Crowded with sailboards when windy. Rock jetty in the water directly downwind of the launch area. Large, thick kelp bed upwind. Narrow sand strip, partly soft, partly concrete-hard. Beach looks long, but there's only one spot just upwind of big, jagged rocks, where the wind is not way to gusty to even fly a kite. Barely enough space to semi-safely launch and land one kite at a time. Strongest, but also most gusty and shifty (horizontally and vertically!) April through October. About 5 days/week at least 15 knots for at least a couple hours in the afternoon. Usual direction is SW, which is sideon at the beach, but sideoff in the riding area out past the rock jetty. Often oscillates nearly instantly between about 10 and 25, which is about as strong as it ever gets in the summer, but it's impossible to tell when it's going to suddenly go from averaging 10 SSW to a solid or gusty 25 W. It's rideable from SSW to SW. Often it switches to WSW and even W, becoming EXTREMELY gusty and shifty on and near shore. Temperatures range from 'shorty' (late summer/early fall) to 'steamer' (late winter/early spring). Year-round riding. Water: Chop. Features: Shop, Rescue, Shower, Toilet. Rider ability: Expert.
