"Santa Ana River Jetties is the most consistent spot by Newport Beach. If everywhere else looks flat, go check out River Jetties because there's almost always something out there. River Jetties is, however, extremely varied in sh

Trip: Spring Break
By DrC123, From 2008-03-28 to 2008-03-28
Spring break .. usually a down time in Southern California as there is a lull period .. the end of storm swells from the far North West and just the beginning of action from the Southern Hemisphere .. but some times you get lucky!&nb

RJ's = Barrels
Love this spot, worth the 1 hour commute down to the O.C. for me. Gets hallow when its firing. Good vibe, got barreled last summer there.

Based on Abililty
Surfed yesterday around Orange St. shortboard. Interesting how much space macho shortboarder gives compared to clueless logger Bolsa Chica. Much more of individualist's experience without the excessive dialogue. Glad to be able to experience both. Newport is cool. However, its not for all.

I'm an Edison graduate and 3rd generation surfer of this spot. I surf on smaller days, body surf on walled days, and sponge it's huge, breaking really fast, or shorepound. There's a bunch of lame kooks these days who think you have to be a bro on a thruster to be out there. Surfing in all forms is rad...and it's a free world - so save your stink eye for the drive in traffic. Surfing is about being at peace: escaping the rat race - if you're out there and you're angry then maybe you don't really get it. Crowds suck but that's the reality of today - not just in the water but life in general - Taking it out on spongers and non locals doesn't help anyone. Grow up. Find Peace.
