Main Street
Edit SpotAbout
Try this spot out, best time is in the morning when its blowing offshore.
Atmosphere:
There is no point break, so you wanna look for the best break on the sand bar, which is usually down south a few yards from the parking lot. Make sure you time the break just right, to get past the shore break on a big day can be real difficult!
Additional Info:
The best time to hit up this spot is when the swell is really small because this spot is a sandbar break that usually breaks onshore. The spot is mostly for bodyboarders, but i have seen some hard core surfers charge this spot. If you come on the right day you can get long, hollow, makeable barrels....this place is a playground for bodyboarders when the offshores are blowing, hollow, fast and bowly, with a fat lip to smack

Go to Guadalupe and make a right on Main Street(thus the name), you'll see a grave yard on the right and follow this road all the way to the beach. The drive is about 3 to 5 miles down, you'll pass fields and drive through dunes(on a paved road). Just park in the parking lot at the end of the road.
