About
Swami's Beach, a renowned point break in Encinitas, California, offers world-class right-hand waves that draw surfers from across the globe. The breaks, which can reach heights of 16 feet or more, are best tackled at low to mid tide, with swells arriving from the northwest and west. The wave bottom consists of flat rocks interspersed with sand, creating a unique and challenging surf experience, particularly during competitive winter swells. This mystical spot, named after the yogi Paramahansa Yogananda, not only serves up exceptional surf but also boasts stunning coastal views and a rich spiritual ambiance.
