Half Moon Bay, California
Sunset and golden hour times for planning your evening session.

West-facing beaches with golden hour potential and evening access.
One of the most famous big-wave spots on Earth, Mavericks breaks a half-mile offshore over a shallow reef, producing giant right and left walls when long-period NW swells march in. Only expert big-wave surfers with safety teams should attempt it.
Most surfers reach the lineup by Jet Ski; if paddling, expect a 30-minute paddle around the reef and huge walls of whitewater.
