Hazards

EXPOSED CAPE The cape geography intercepts more raw energy than the sheltered city beaches — can get hollower and more powerful.
ROCKS Cape terrain means rockier sections near the point — know the lineup before paddling out.
INFORMATION Very limited surf information and no established surf community — self-sufficient approach required.
SEASONAL NEIGHBOUR Portez Beach, a small seasonal resort beach, sits nearby — mostly private in summer but a useful landmark for access.

Local knowledge

Best tide Mid to high tide
Peak season Nov–Mar · W/NW swell during peak winter
Swell key W/NW swell · Exposed cape catches more power than the main city beaches
Level Intermediate · Mixed rock/sand · More powerful than the Durrës city beaches
Dawn patrol The cape geography does real work here — worth the drive north when a genuine W/NW winter swell is running.
