Pescedero (Pesky)
Edit SpotAbout
My San Diego City favorite. Good to learn on, nice forgiving reef breaks.
Atmosphere:
Great chill spot. A lot of people there have been surfing peskys for meany years, but are quiet and hospitable. Dont snake, drop in and you will have no worries. Just be respectful.
Additional Info:
Stay directly out from the entrance and you will have your choice of rights and lefts. Dont ride in too far, remember those reefs. Actually the softest safest reef break on the cliffs.
Location
Loading...Access
Take Cable St, until it ends at Orchard ave. Small boat ramp leads down to the break. If you walk out on the reefs, stay to the right and head straight out on a large flat reef, at low tide, there is a small boat channel slightly to the left to paddle through.
