lost surf spots - I began surfing at Ballona Creek in Playa del Rey ( near Venice) in 1963. Fun spot! . Great lests on a south swell.
They built a marina with a big breakwater in the mid 60's that wrecked the break.
Here's a link to a SURFER magazine article , an interview with Stacy Peralta. There is a photo that REALLY looks like the Creek in its heyday.
