About
Dillon Beach, nestled near Tomales Bay in San Francisco, offers a versatile sand-bar break that favors both left and right rides. With waves that pulse to life at 3 to 5 feet, it can hold its own against swells exceeding 10 feet, particularly from the northwest. The sandy bottom provides a forgiving landing, while the currents stirred by the nearby bay create a dynamic surf experience. Best approached on a falling tide, this spot welcomes all tides, inviting those seeking both thrill and tranquility in its rippable waters.
