Wind & shelter
The catalogue records this beach as opening towards W. Wind coming from that direction can drive waves towards the shore; wind from the opposite direction may give more shelter near the sand. Headlands, terrain and offshore swell can change the result.
This west-facing cove can receive westerly wind and swell. Its enclosed shape may give local shelter, but does not guarantee calm water.
