About

Sleepy Hollow, nestled in Orange County, California, offers a regional classic point-break that carves gracefully to the left. The sandy bottom cradles waves that come alive with a swell from the Northwest, beginning at 5 to 6 feet and holding firm up to 8 feet or more. Ideal for rippable rides, this spot is best surfed during mid to high tide, particularly on a falling tide when the ocean breathes its most inviting rhythm. The charm of Sleepy Hollow lies not just in its waves but in the tranquil setting, a hidden gem where surfers can find both challenge and serenity.
