There are loads of beginer friendly beaches in SD most of them have a nearby rental. Mission beach, Ocean Beach, Pacific Beach all have decent beginer spots and close rental places.

I hope you get some swell as its flatter than flat at the moment :(

How long are you planning on staying as it might be more economical to just buy a second hander you can always sell the board before you go to either another surfer or just to a second hand surf shop rather than constantly renting :wink:
