Devereux
Edit SpotAbout
Mellow place, good for longboarding. Occasional ocean kayakers and SUPs. Friendly students facilitate a fun atmosphere.
Additional Info:
Breaks at the point and also 100 meters east on a sandbar in front of the Camino Majorca stair access. Can handle prevailing NW wind. Infested with kelp and lots of tar from oil deposits. Waves by the point can get hollow at 6ft+ but otherwise usually just a fun, cruisey wave. Lots of UCSB students and Goleta old-timers. Gets good on powerful W swells.
