Surfing Short Sands

Sheltered cove in old-growth forest.

Conditions are rated intermediate level. The wave works best with a light offshore wind early in the morning, a favourable tide on the push and a clean groundswell. Check the hour-by-hour panel and the forecast table to pick your window.

Early morning, before the wind comes up. Aim for a light offshore around dawn on a mid-to-low pushing tide with a clean groundswell — that combination produces the cleanest, most makeable peaks.
