Additional Information
Photo 1 is looking south from Bird Rock toward Cyprus Point, the rocks are part of Seal Rock. I've liver near here for close to 40 years and have only seen it surfed once. It is very dangerous because of the rocks. At peak it can run over 30 ft but you would have to be nuts to surf it. Photo 2 and 3 appear to look north from Bird Rock. I've only seen it surfed a couple of time. Break can be hugh but short lived and again very dangerous because of the rocks.
Atmosphere
very dangerous spot
General
it's good if you're good And Nuts

realtuffguy - love the grumpy cliche-ridden commentary from these half-brain dimwits who "claim" Monterey local status. My family's been there since the land grant days (well before the white trash arrived) and we welcome all those who show respect and want to have a good time riding their fiberglass sleighs of joy. See you at Fullers.
