About

At Oceanside Harbor, the waves unfold like stories told by the sea, breaking both right and left over a sandy bottom. The surf thrives on swells from the northwest, west, and southwest, holding firm from less than 3 feet to over 10 when the conditions align. Mid to high tide offers the best chance for barrels, and the morning winds often blow offshore, inviting the soul to ride. Here, amidst a bustling crowd, both jetties stand as steadfast guardians of a quality wave that beckons the intermediate surfer to dance with the ocean.
