Sharks
I've been surfing this place since the mid 70s. Had 3 major Great White experiences here in the early 80s. I was the last person Lou Boren talked to before he was killed by a Great White. I surfed here 2 months ago and it still spooks me. Make sure theirs at least 10 people out to better your odds lol.

Current
Everyone says the sideshore current here is bad, they are all right. I paddled and paddled away from the rocks and basically stayed in one spot, the cold water doesnt help either. it was head high + when i was there and I can only imagine what its like when it is bigger. My little cousin got stuck out and I had to go rescue him, not a spot for the por paddler or poor swimmer, so be careful out there!

juicers only
This beach break serves some up, thick pits, always bigger than looks, water is probly below 50. Grumpy old dudes and ego maniac mediocore surfers "rule" this spot. Still a fun choice if in monterey. Just don;t paddle out on a longboard, i saw a bitter old man kick someone out of the water for it.
