About
At Bonzai's in Los Angeles County, the waves rise from the depths of a rocky reef, rolling right and promising barrels for the daring. Best ridden during low to mid tide, these swells, which start at a modest 3 feet and can swell to over 10, are sculpted by the northwesterly winds that whip through this surf sanctuary. The bottom, sharp and unforgiving, demands respect from those who venture into its embrace. Here, in the heart of Southern California, the surf calls to the brave and the foolish alike, a siren song echoing through the crashing surf.
