About
Moonstone, nestled in the rugged embrace of Humboldt County, offers a beach break that welcomes both left and right-handers, carving its way through sandy bottoms. This spot thrives on swells from the north, northwest, and west, holding up to a robust six feet when the conditions align, particularly at mid to high tide. The waves can be soft and mushy, ideal for those seeking a laid-back ride, yet it can draw a crowd, especially in winter when the surf is most reliable. A keen eye for the southeast to northeast winds will reward you with cleaner lines, making it a cherished gem along the California coast.
