About

This reef break is great for surfing, standup paddling, windsurfing and kiting.  It is a longish paddle if you don't have a boat, but really close by if you're on a SUP, WS or KB.  In the afternoons on good, windy days you are going to find anywhere from 8-10 wind junkies out there, so you may want to go out earlier in the morning to avoid them, besides when it is windy you probably don't want to paddle out there.

When it isn't windy, you will probably be by yourself or with three or four other surfers that took one of the rubber boats anchored by the beach out to the break.  I would not paddle out on an offshore day (wind from the south) even on a good day because you have to paddle back against the wind after you're tired, however, if you have access to a boat, a day with a South wind and a North swell can be magazine quality.

Additional Info:
There's plenty of street parking along Park Boulevard, but make sure you lock your car, just in case.  Try to go out earlier in the morning before the tradewinds begin to blow, unless you are a windsurfer or kiter, in which case you want to get here around 2PM.  There are lots of other surfable breaks along this reef, but this one is the better shaped and most consistent.
