About

Deer Creek, nestled in Ventura County, offers right-hand reef breaks that can barrel beautifully under the right conditions. The waves thrive on northwest to west swells, reaching up to 8 feet, particularly at low to mid tide, where sharp coral and rocks line the bottom. A mere twenty-seven steps from the highway leads you to the small sandy beach, often overlooked by the crowds heading to more popular spots. Be cautious of the powerful surf and watch for rocks; this spot rewards those who respect its rugged beauty.
