Conditions not favorable for surfing.
Shipwrecks is the stretch of Coronado Beach near the visible remains of the SS Monte Carlo. This exposed beach break can deliver peaky lefts and rights during south-west swells and is generally more mellow than neighboring peaks. Be aware of deep holes and strong currents around the wreck, and avoid climbing on the slippery, rusting metal.
Stay off the wreck; heed lifeguard warnings and keep a safe distance from swimmers.
Insider tips from local surfers
Look for sandbars that form near the wreck which produce punchy peaks. Surf on a rising tide for more power.
