Get there EARLY in the morning, thats the best time to surf this spot, either that, or way late at night... Good beginner's spot, it's where I first learned
Atmosphere
Atmosphere is pretty chill, localism isnt bad, kinda crowded if you pick a bad time to go there... My advice, go during the week...
General
Good if you wanna learn to surf, and you havent gone before.

To: Mike - I live about a block away from this surf spot. It's a great spot for daily surfing, but to say it's the best place in the country is a stretch.

Yah... - This place is absolutely amazing. 1 star? I say 11. You'd have to be a complete idiot to surf any of the other spots in the county.
