Riviera in San Clemente, CA is a beach break, suited for intermediate surfers. Current conditions: 2.4 ft waves, w 11 mph (cross-shore), rising → high tide. Size is there, but cross-shore wind affects quality. Riviera is a south San Clemente beachbreak reached from the Plaza a La Playa access and the coastal trail. Expect short, punchy peaks rather than long walls. Riviera is less consistent than T-Street, so sandbar quality and recent swell direction matter a lot. Forecasts are updated every 3 hours using ML-corrected NOAA models with live buoy data from CDIP, NDBC, and IOOS stations.
