About This Spot
Beachbreak at South Mission with a jetty that creates wedging waves. Big parking lot fills with volleyball crowds mid-day. Mid tide steadies the wave shape. Onshores wreck afternoons so go early for best conditions. The jetty rip runs hard on overhead pulses - keep eyes on the current.
Local Etiquette
Tourist-heavy; watch for swimmers and rental boards, and keep things friendly at the jetty wedges.
