About

Tunitas Creek, nestled in the rugged embrace of San Mateo, California, draws surfers to its sandy shores with the promise of barrels that roll in from the west and southwest. The waves, a regional classic, thrive at all tides but unveil their true glory on a falling tide, starting at a modest 3 feet and surging up to 12 feet. Here, the ocean greets you with both right and left breaks, offering a dance of power and grace on a forgiving sandy bottom. It is a place where the sea whispers secrets to the wise, and every ride is a testament to nature's raw beauty.
