Local Tips
- •Use wave energy (kJ) alongside wave height when judging how heavy My Khe will feel; the sandbar setup makes energy a more predictive indicator for this beach.
- •Spread out along the beach to find better banks and less competition; peaks shift and there are multiple workable sections along the long shoreline.
- •The T20–T18 zone is described as deeper with stronger waves and currents compared with more central zones.
