The waves here are excellent for having fun! There is usually a good swell, although there are some rocky areas. If you avoid those, you can have a great time in the afternoon. This is one of my favorite spots when I'm in this area. I would recommend bringing a body board though, as some of the waves can be quite strong and it can be a bit uncomfortable to body surf. Other than that, seaweed is rarely a problem here, but when it is, it's usually right at the shoreline.
