    Short Sands

    Beginner friendly

    This sandy cove in Oswald West State Park offers fun peaks and a mellow vibe. It's a popular spot for beginners and longboarders, although October and November groom the sandbars for occasional barrels and long rides. The beach is reached via a forest trail and is sheltered from north winds, but heavy winter swells can be powerful.
