About
Del Mar, California, offers a classic beach-break experience, where waves roll in from the Northwest and West, peaking at a modest height of less than 1 meter, but capable of building to over 3 meters. The sandy bottom provides a forgiving canvas for both right and left rides, though the waves often carry a soft, mushy power, ideal for all skill levels. Best enjoyed during rising and falling tides, Del Mar welcomes surfers at any tide position, making it a versatile spot in San Diego County. Embrace the spirit of the ocean here, where the crowd is less dense, and the waves wait patiently for those who seek them.
