About
Crescent City South Beach, nestled in Del Norte County, offers a sandy beach break where waves dance both right and left. The surf comes alive with swells starting below 1 meter, peaking at up to 2 meters, best enjoyed during mid to high tide on a rising swell. Winter and spring unveil the spot’s true character, particularly in January, though the crowd remains sparse even when the surf is decent. Surfers should be mindful of the cold waters and occasional rocky outcrops, but the solitude here can be a balm for the spirit.
