Quatro Casas is a right-hand reef and semi-point below the bluffs south of Colonet, and a long-time favorite of Southern California surfers who camp on the cliffs. The bluffs and kelp help protect it from the wind. It works on both summer south swell and winter northwest swell.

Early access

Dirt roads lead to the bluffs above the break. Camping on the bluffs usually costs a small fee. Camp near others and keep valuables secure.
