About
Pleasure Point, nestled in Santa Cruz, California, offers a regional classic point break that draws surfers from far and wide. With its right-hand waves peeling over sharp coral and rocky reefs, this spot comes alive at low to mid tide, working best with swells from the north to southwest, holding up to 16 feet. The atmosphere is steeped in surf culture, a place where the legacy of pioneers like Jack O’Neill still lingers, and the local vibe melds seamlessly with eager visitors. As you ride the mushball waves, take a moment to breathe in the salt air and witness the beauty of the Monterey Bay.
