where to surf in so cal this weekend?

Postby tobinchodos » Tue Sep 25, 2018 5:46 am

Hey all, looking forward to the swell finally coming in after a dull few weeks. But I'm not good enough to know what beach would really be the best for the swell that's coming in this weekend. I'm flexible and could surf basically anywhere from northern Baja to Ventura this weekend...just need to make up my mind. Any opinions?

Point, Choosango, really good when you get to that point.
It’s often less crowded,
If you have that flexibility then use it to check a number of breaks, you get a number of actual learnings.
You will be able to match swell direction and size along with crowd factor to those beaches. Knowledge beats forecasts and crowds, because there places ( still) that don’t feature on cams or forecasts
So Point Choosango is my top spot! :D
