About
Hennemans, nestled in the heart of San Diego, offers a rugged reef break where boulders meet the sea. Waves here are a mix of rights and lefts, best enjoyed at mid to high tide, with swells that start working at 5 feet and can grow to monstrous heights. The power of these mushy waves is tempered, making it a playground for intermediate surfers, though caution is advised for the rocky bottom. On good days, the spot can be less crowded, but expect to share the stoke on weekends when the surf draws a crowd.
