About
Hermosa Beach Pier, nestled in the heart of LA County, offers a reliable beach-break that welcomes both novice and seasoned surfers. Waves here roll in from the north, northwest, and west, peaking at a manageable mushball power, with heights starting from under 3 feet and reaching over 6 feet on good days. The sandy bottom provides a forgiving canvas for those seeking to hone their skills, while the best rides happen during a rising tide at all tide positions. Watch the swell and wind; the southeast breeze can lift the spirit of the ocean, creating a dance of left and right waves that beckons you to paddle out.
