In no particular order -
- San Clemente "T-Street"
(South side of the pier is occasionally blackballed and there is free parking don't waste money at the meters.)
- Huntington Beach "Surf City"
(The U.S. Open is held here each year because of the quality of waves this beach can produce from time to time.)
- 36'th Street Newport
(Parking can be a bit more challenging at this beach but the waves are phenomenal.)
- Salt Creek
( This spot is usually less crowded than the other but not always Bodyboarder friendly so take a couple big friends :-)
-Ocean Side Pier
(Free parking near the marina but once again not the friendliest locals)
-San Clemente State Park
(You will have to pay a few dollars for parking but there are facilities and showers provided at this location; very convenient.)
-La Jolla Shores
(This is a great spot on bigger surf days. Watch out for stingrays in the warmer months though!)
-Grandview
(This is wonderful on a 5-6 foot swell. The only down side is the 400 stairs you have to take to get down to the beach.)
-The Wedge
(Extremely challenging surf spot but possibly the most famous of any southern california spot.)
-Cottons
(Very close to San Clemente State Park but south a few miles. This wave breaks beautifully in 6ft + swells.)
If you have any other spots and reasons why these spots are quality please feel free to contact me!
