Overview
Car-rille is a fabled 1 km-long right-hand point that draws comparisons to Rincon. The wave runs along an uneven reef and sand bottom, giving it a long, peeling wall when it turns on.
When It Works
Car-rille comes alive on a solid southwest typhoon swell, the classic 6 ft setup that lights up the point. It draws swell from southwest through northwest (SW-NW), with southwest swell the best match. The point is usable from 0.6 m / 2 ft to 1.8 m / 6 ft. It can be somewhat inconsistent, so it pays to wait for the right swell window rather than expect it on any given day.
Wind and Tide
Look for southeast offshore wind to groom the point. It can work through low, mid, and high tide, with a rising tide generally the better call.
Local Tips
This is a rewarding right-hander for intermediate surfers. Expect a moderately busy lineup when it's working.
