More Mesa
Edit SpotAbout
Not many surfer's know how good this spot is for how uncrowded it is, there is literally almost nobody ever surfing out here.
Atmosphere:
Very good one mile stretch of beach break with the main peak sitting directly in front of the staircase, the sandbar at the main peak is held in place by large rocks and smaller cobblestones. Other peaks nearby are still very good but are shifty and tend to be walled sometimes. Main peak is emphasized on the lefts, which are very hollow, although the right is extremely good also. Atmosphere is very hip, lots of stoners and BMX bikers hang out here. Almost never a crowd in the water. This area is also considered a nude beach so watch out for that.
