Shipwrecks
beach
intermediate
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.
Early access
Walk along the beach to the shipwreck area. At low tide, parts of the wreck are exposed; at high tide, currents swirl around it.
Parking
Park along Ocean Boulevard or in the nearby residential area; walk down beach access points toward the visible shipwreck.
