Damneck Naval Base
Edit SpotAbout
Great spot
Atmosphere:
Atomspher extremly mellow great place to learn how to surf. The Lifeguards are a pain if you get outside the surf zone. On weekdays never crowded surfed 5 feet blowing offshore by myself. But the weekends do get crowded somtimes but when it is everyone is friendly never got yelled at.
Additional Info:
Just park your car in the parking lot and walk over the dune. There are three beaches the one near the oceanfront(right) is the Officers only the middle is the Surfing and the Left is enlisted. Only open from June till labor day
