Little OB
Open to the swell and the wind. Heavy beach break. It's kinda like a little OB, only it doesn't get good as often because the sand bars don't form as well or as often. Can be good->great but all of HMB is fickle, this place is no different. The Jetty is much more sheltered from the wind and much less punishing.

Weird place..
Seems like it's right next to the beach, but, when you paddle out, your further from the beach then you think. Waves Jack, but, you are always just a little out of position, and, it always has plenty of close outs.Looks great in photos, but, it rarely is.
