This is a more user-friendly spot than Ocean Beach with an easier paddle out. There is easy parking and beach accessibility. The break is usually more wind protected and has an easier begginer break toward the south end of the beach. Duration: 2 hours.
If you're looking for a place to surf and Ocean Beach isn't quite your speed or Santa Cruz is too far, head to Pacifica, specifically Linda Mar. Linda Mar is usually more wind protected and user-friendly than ocean beach. Break out your longboard or hybrid board and head to this beach. There is easy parking, bathrooms, and showers. Beginners should look toward the south end of the beach for an easier paddle out. Bonus: there's a taco bell on the beach.
If you're looking for something more substantive than the bell, head to Colombo's Delicatessen afterward or grab it beforehand and spend the day at the beach!
