About
Widdows, a point-break nestled in San Luis Obispo, California, offers a classic surf experience where the waves peel right over a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. The swell, favoring west to southwest directions, begins to work at 2 to 2.5 meters and can hold up impressively over 3 meters, making it a rippable playground for those who seek the thrill. Best enjoyed at low to mid tide with rising and falling movements, the spot thrives when the winds come from the southeast. Here, the solitude is often a welcome companion, as the crowd seldom intrudes upon the dance of board and wave.
