    REVIEWS

    Hotel Del works best on a clean NW or WNW swell in the 2-4 ft range with light offshore winds from the east. The 320-degree aspect catches NW energy efficiently, making it a viable option when south-facing SD beaches are flat on a tight NW angle. A rising mid-to-high tide smooths out the crumbly shore break and creates longer, more workable wave faces. Fall and winter mornings with light winds are the sweet spot. This is a dawn-to-mid-morning glass window spot—the wide beach funnels afternoon onshore directly into the break.
