Afife has been likened to Supertubos but without the crowds. Consistent and very fast, hollow peaks spit surfers out of barrels all over the place. SW swell and low to mid tide is best - the southern end is usually bigger.
It's one of the busiest spots in the north but compared to down south it's empty. With the power comes strong currents.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
