Site Notes
Primarily a surf spot — the famous reef focuses swell energy and turns the lineup into the Windansea break. Only enterable on small, clean days; conditions degrade faster here than at neighboring Marine Street or La Jolla Cove. West-facing with no shelter from NW swell. Watch for surfers in the water.
