Beach break along the shore, shallow lagoon in front of Lambeau village, to the left and around the point by the Hilton to the right. Reef break in front of the Hilton and around the point. There are occasionally a few swimmers around but nothing to worry about. From around April until June there can be some days where Portuguese Man-O-Wars are washed ashore. These days are rare though. Wearing a lycra will help protect.
