Sheltered from the headland, this beach can refine out-of-control storm surf. It works best at mid-tide and when it's big. Strong SE wind swells can offer relief from the summer heat but are often weak and fickle.

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.
