There are a variety of spots to surf along the Callantsoog Beach. Generally, the peak in front of the boating club is the best. Watch out for the jetties. On some days the outer sandbar, way past the jetties, breaks beautiful, it's worth the paddle.

Winter surf in The CAL - We had a great surf on December 1st. Beautiful lefthanders were to be found on the outer banks. Just me and two other local rippers were out!
