About
Point Sur, a sentinel of the Pacific, offers a canvas of sandy bars with a rocky undertow, where waves dance to the rhythm of the northwest swell. Here, the surf breaks both right and left, rippable and inviting, best embraced during the low to mid tide on a falling tide. As the swell builds, it can cradle you from a modest three feet to a towering eight, but respect the ocean's power. The lighthouse stands as a timeless guardian, casting its gaze over this regional classic, where the spirit of adventure meets the wild beauty of the California coast.
