Additional Surfing Infos |
| | Park at Lighthouse Park parking lot. Walk the trail south until you get to the lighthouse (just a metal stand with a light on it). If the wave is working you'll see it here. It ussually works with high winds, so be mindful of the current. You can sometimes go out behind the wave and let the wind bring you into position, if you can paddle well too of course.

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
This is a nice spot in the summer for viewing whales and birds, as well as for fishing, but when the wave works it's ussually windy and rainy here. This spot needs lots of wind generated swell, which only really happens in the fall and winter months. January is probably the best month, but the best thing to do is keep you eye on the local weather, or even better, have a local call you if it's windy in T-town or Whiterock. |
| |
General |
This spot isn't really so much a spot as a place to come see a small wave near Vancouver on a really windy day. Most people with good intentions probably come, look at it, then decide not to put on the wetsuit. If you do put on the wetsuit, it's a good idea to have someone with you, so you don't drift out to the ferry terminal. |

Point roberts point, United States of America

windy as hell
I think today was about as windy as it will ever get here, note to self, can't surf PR with +100km winds, beautiful waves for the area though, too bad for the houses on the beach.
