Additional Surfing Infos |
| | Watch for high tide exits! Waves can push right against cliff wall making exits hazardous at best. To avoid the hell....paddle down beach to Privates or north to 38th St. Also watch for locals! There are some pretty agressive locals around here that want the spot on a pumping south. (which never happens, making them want it even more when it does)

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
Fun spot.....bad vibe; VERY localized. Bad wave for longboards they arent allowed. If you take one out you'll probably get kicked out; shortboards only. Easy parking if you are lucky, otherwise might be walking a while. Nice spot to watch the waves from cliff edge after a good session. |
| |
General |
Dont surf here unless you're good, a local, or really know how to stay out of the way. If you DO suck, go to 38th (a short walk/paddle up the shore) or go to Capitola/cowells. Even if you're not a bad surfer, expect to get yelled at once or twice here. |
