About

Cabrillo Point, nestled in the heart of Los Angeles County, offers a right-point break that delivers classic regional waves. The boulders beneath create a unique bottom, giving rise to mushy waves that start working at around 5-6 feet and hold strong up to 12 feet. Best surf conditions occur during low to mid-tide, with swells rolling in from the west and southwest. On days when the north winds calm and the swell aligns, you'll find a raw beauty in the ride here that echoes the ocean's timeless rhythm.
