About
At Hermosa Pier in California, the waves are a mix of sloppy barrels that rise from the northwest and west, best enjoyed at low to mid tide. The sandy bottom offers a forgiving ride, where both right and left breaks beckon surfers of all skill levels. Ideal swell sizes range between 10 to 12 feet, holding strong up to 16 feet, particularly during winter months when the ocean is at its most powerful. With the southeast winds, the pier stands as a steadfast landmark against the ebb and flow of the surf, inviting those who dare to dance upon its liquid stage.
