shorebreak's is a fun beach break. it's primarily a wind swell beach break with the prevailing wind onshore. its hella fun and a good place to learn and also to hone your skills under any conditions.

- I grew up bodyboarding over here. It gets 'fun' once in a blue moon. Usually chopped out and barely rideable. Same setup as bellows. Sadly the beach has become extremely crowded in the past few years. Good luck getting a parking spot in the afternoon. Either way, its good to get in the water close to home. Watch out for the man-o-wars.
