Passing through Cambria and heading north on California Highway 1, turn left onto Windsor and then make a quick right onto Moonstone Beach Drive. You'll find a parking area about 1/2 a mile up the road on the left.
Bounded to the south by a rock pile and to the north by scattered tide pools and a reef, Santa Rosa breaks best during from late summer through the winter months.
The spot can handle a number of fun waves, including super clean wedge that wraps around the southern rock pile at high tide during a consistent south swell. At low tide during a south, you should be able to catch some amazing lefts breaking off of the north side of the rock pile.
The beach break in the center best handles west and north swells, and you might find a fun right over the northern reef.
beginners???
Make sure your life insurance is paid up. Can sneak up on you. Not for the weak

Fickality
This spot is fickle and tides will kill it when youjust got out. Very fickle.

Nothing is true
Just like almost everything on this web site, this also is complete BS. Don't waste your time reading any of this, NONE of it even remotely true.
