The sand build-up here provides a steep sucky left from a critical take-off point just in front of the end of the jetty down towards the next groin at 8th Street. Handles the big NE swells, but a S swell doesn?t work on the north side of the jetty.
Hazards include the long, exposed stormwater pipes that stick out in the surf at high tides. Summer surfing restrictions and plenty of taggers.

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.
