About This Spot

The south end of Ocean Beach around Sloat Boulevard often has the most defined sandbars, producing punchy peaks and occasional tubes. Currents are still strong and the water is frigid, so only confident surfers should paddle out.

Local Etiquette

Don't leave trash behind and be aware of other surfers; help others if they get caught in rips.
