Waves usually 1-2 ft. Sometimes overhead but not well formed. Avoid high tide because the water comes up to the trees. The sandy beach gets pretty big at low tide especially at the north or south end of the island. You have to hike to get to either end. Crowds are usually not to bad if you are willing to hike and the rangers are cool. Summer: light sideshore wind - 10 kts if you are lucky. Fall to spring: usually good wind when fronts come through but frequently offshore. You need a wetsuit and maybe a hood in winter. Water: Chop, Smallwave. Features: Camping, Shower, Toilet. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
