I have my own secret for parking and I think spaces are so few you should find your own. You undoubtedly drive by this wave if you drive PCH between Corona Del Mar and Laguna. Once you park, you can just walk onto the beach.
It is a rarity to catch this place, especially because the lineup is so tight. The easiest takeoff zone is by lining up directly off of the cliff. Everyone does this in order to get into the wave really early before it explodes into a sweet tube. It is really crowded these days and that is why I finally posted this.
Overview
Atmosphere
I have surfed here for over ten years and now I can't even get a wave here. It used to be a big secret because it rarely gets good and the access is kind of tricky. Now there are always is a crowd out when it is good.
General
There is a really good poster of this place for sale in surf shops. The poster is titled "Laguna Beach" and it is a side shot of a huge green/slate grey left barrel against a dark cliff backround. That's it. Periodically people will talk about this "semi-secret" surf spot, but there really is no secret except for parking.
is el mo dead
i havent seen it break in months. it was pumping all last fall, and theyve dug out tons of sand from next to the cliff, and i think they ruined the sandbars. have the dumshit state park people ruined it forever, or has anyone surfed it recently?

Plenty of tube rides all summer 4 'the OC' kids!
It pumps & grinds all summer long, w/ short hollow rights or glassy, peeling left barrels in the cove! Just have your mom pack extra bologna sandwiches, 4 feeding the trailer trash locals, bring along as many kids as poss. w/bodyboards into SUV's or full-sized Vans, have yourselves a surfari!!
