Surfing San Onofre
Surfing | No CommentsI have to admit I never seem to get tired of surfing San Onofre during the summer with some of the B.W. Surf Club crew. Charging with the bro’s at 5:30am is kinda rough Just had to share that a great 6 hours at Old mans was just what the doctor ordered. It’s one of the best places to learn how to surf and it’s always a benefit to be able to park on the sand and bring the dog.

San Onofre’ State Beach is a great place for surfers. Also called San O’, it is a large open beach with plenty of surf from small to large. San O’ is a friendly surf break that is a great place for beginners and families. Longboards strongly recommended. During the lower tides, small (pebbles) and medium (golf ball) round rocks are exposed making the “reef dance” a bit precarious, so booties may help out.
Tips: Get there early! There tends to be a line to get in, especially during a swell. Most of us leave the West side at about 5:30 - 6:00 AM.
Directions: Take 405 South to 5 South, exit Basilone Rd. Follow signs to San Onofre State Beach (not campground) Opens @ 6:30am. There is very good signage.
Bring your own food & drinks, this is a remote beach, no services or snack bar available.
Bring surfboards, umbrellas (shade is scarce and a sunny day can get hot), beach chairs, volleyball, sunscreen and be ready for fun!
