Sunset Cliffs - Osprey
Edit SpotAbout
There's better surfspots nearby just keep driving.
Atmosphere:
Great spot to bring the girlfriend who wants to watch or photograph you surfing. Although this surfspot can hurt you in many ways. The lineup is tricky and the wave is similar to Haliewa without the death rock.
Additional Info:
Don't forget your cord. When the surf is 5+ The rocks ALWAYS destroy loose boards and if you are trying to swim in, the inside rip takes you southwest and the outside rip takes you northeast so you just circle around untill someone calls the Lifeguards.
