Sandy Lane surf guide

Sandy Lane is located mid-way down the island and features a short, steep left that can provide some fun rides. However, it's a bit hit or miss, as the waves can range from fantastic to completely flat. This spot is known for its low consistency, which means when conditions are right, the locals usually show up in numbers. Be prepared for a scene when it finally breaks.

The surf here works best with a north or northeast swell, handling sizes around 3 feet (about 1 meter). The waves break over an uneven reef, making it essential to pay attention out there. You can expect a left-handed wave that tends to favor east winds. Whether you catch it on a low, mid, or high tide, it's generally a spot for expert surfers, so make sure you know what you're doing before paddling out.

When the stars align with swell and winds, backwash airs are popular here, adding some extra flair to your session. Just remember, Sandy Lane isn't the most consistent spot, so it might take some waiting for the right conditions to come together. Keep an eye on the forecasts and be ready for when it turns on.
