In small swells, Alexandra Headland or The Bluff is a fat and forgiving righthand point that gets packed with longboarders in the water and tourists on the beach. Handles a bigger swell from the south, when rips increase and the walls have more power, but it is still a fairly benign wave. There's more rights on the inside at the Corner as it heads into the beachbreak lefts.
The local longboard legends can be a bit greedy, but the vibe is fairly mellow.

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.
