Howz the wave in california?

Question

ANy1 surf? ive just had a sick session in new zealand!

So wats the wave like in california atm? What beach?

Answer 1

California is a big state, bro!

There's lot of great surf up and down the coast all year round. Just depends on the direction of the swells and direction the beach faces.

Right now it's winter here so you want to go to beaches with a N to NW exposure. South facing breaks, (like Malibu), only have waves in the summer, (when it's winter in the Southern hemisphere).

This guy named 'Franko' has some great surf maps for California that give the swell direction, best tide, etc for all the breaks. I got mine here:

Have fun!!

Answer 2

San Clemente today is sunny, with knee to waist high with 57 degree water. Not too exciting but nice out, maybe some offshores later.

Answer 3

Since there has been lots of storms coming into the Pacific Northwest lately, the latest hot spot has been Half Moon Bay or Mavericks. The wave the past few days have been pumping.
