Crowded, high-quality pointbreak rights. Fast and hollow over the inside shelf. NW winds blow offshore here, making it a popular spot on windy days. Can work on all tides, but medium-low works best.
Located four miles north of Santa Cruz city limit; park in the rip-off-prone dirt lot on the ocean side of the highway and walk a half-mile down to the beach. If there is any swell, you?ll see cars and plenty of surfers standing on high ground craning to see the beach.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
