About

A neat place to surf, although it lacks the consistancy (and the crowds!) of 4-mile. It's not usually good, but when it is, people will be driving right past it, you and your bro's will be SCORING!

Atmosphere:
Beautiful cliffs, clean cold water. Semi- wind protected. The setting reminds me of Western OZ!
Seems like this place would be sharky, but there has never been an attack here.

Additional Info:
This is a quirky spot on most swells, as it shifts around a bit. I have gone out many times and got frustrated, but on the best swell (Mainly from the southwest), this can be the best spot around! Look for a low tide going high, with a long period swell (like most of the spot around here). Again, SOUTHWEST SWELL.
On the bigger days of the North/Northwest swells, this can be a fun big wave spot, as the water is really deep out there, makes for some interesting drops!

Location

Access

It's called 3 mile for a reason. Take Mission through to its connection to Highway 1 and go three miles (just past the dump). Park your car so it is visible, that way it won't get broken in to. It's a long walk down, but easy to find. You can also park at 4 mile and take the beach south.
