Additional Surfing Infos |
| | You can drive down the beach and find a sandbar to your liking...this may be the best bet in the summer when swells are few and far between.
|
| |
Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
This is where people go to get away from the crowds near the pier. Oceano is known for dolphins, and it is ALWAYS a bit bigger than Pismo (near the pier, to the north). A popular longboard spot with the 40+ crew. If you park at the parking lot to the south of the beach entrance you will see a few of the regulars. If you park in the homes you will see tourists from Bakersfield in the summer beach rentals. |
| |
General |
It can get good, but it needs some strong swell and that rarely happens in the summer. There seems to be a good sandbar to the south near the rivermouth, as you travel south the size picks up a bit. Most people, however, paddle out in front of the parking lot at the Northernmost part of the beach. |
