Long board spot, just a skip down the beach from the always overcrowded, 2nd light. If theres 80 guys in the water at the main gate, go a half mile south, and get a beautiful peeling wave, with only a handful of longboards in the water DistanceTake a car WalkInstant access (< 5min) Easy to find?Easy to find Public access?Public access Special accessDon't know |

I love this spot - I have been surfing this spot for at least ten years. When it gets big, it works hard and is known to barrel. More often, its small and perfect. Longboarders can get nose rides that go on forever! Left and right.

shorepound - This place has a great shorepound now. Superfun shorepound when it gets glassy and high tide. Watch out cuz its realy shallow.

Little more bodies now...... - Used to surf here alot BUT have moved on to greener pastures (well maybe light greener...ah hell, less crowded). Seems like in the last 2 years it's been getting more and more crowded, especially when 2nd Light is packed out. Right swell, right wind, right tide and it can be really fun, other than that it's a great place to snag some fish.
