Additional Information

Fun local break, with quick punchy rights and lefts. Home base for all the SCHS rippers and local pros, including the Gudauskas brothers, Wardo and Snips. Will break on almost any swell, but tends to close out on souths. Best on a west swell.

Atmosphere

Mellow relaxed vibe. Tons of hot chicks during the summer!
