About
Saint George Reef, off the rugged coast of Del Norte, California, offers a regional classic for those daring enough to face its sharp coral and rocky bottom. The left-hand barrels begin to work at a swell size of 1.0m-1.5m, holding strong up to 2.5m+, with the best conditions found at mid tide during the rising and falling tides. Swells arrive from the north, northwest, and west, while southeast to east winds can create epic rides. It’s a spot for the bold, where the ocean’s power meets the solitude of the wild California coast.
