About
At Sunset Cliffs' Osprey, the waves break with a graceful churn over sharp coral and rocky reefs, offering both lefts and rights that rise and fall under the pull of the tide. This regional classic comes alive with swells starting at 3 to 5 feet, holding up to a daunting 12 feet, particularly during low and mid tides when the ocean breathes its best. Surfers must tread carefully, for the sharp bottom can claim unwary boards, and the tricky lineup can test even seasoned riders. Accessible by a short walk along the cliffs, this spot is both a feast for the eyes and a challenge for the soul, where beauty and danger dance on the water’s edge.
