Hazards

SANDBAR Sandbar beach break with both rights and lefts — banks respond well to Mistral swell, walk the beach for the best peak.
RIP Mistral swell builds a real rip through the sandbar troughs — this stretch handles size well, respect it on bigger days.
LOCALS One of the more established local surf communities on the central Algiers coast — respectful but a real lineup.
OFFSHORE WIND Best with S/SE wind blowing offshore off the cliff behind the beach.
