Located in Northern Orange County, Surfside Jetty is an excellent wave that breaks off a jetty. The waves here a difficult to surf and break for up to 50 meters providing heavy sections for turns, carves, and barrels. This wave is heavy and is accompanied by heavy currents.

What are the best surf conditions for Surfside Jetty?

Gets good between waist high and double overhead. We recommend a shortboard or step up here. This break is best suited to intermediate and advanced surfers. The surf here is very inconsistent (3/10) and will be crowded when it does break (8/10). The best winds are from the Northeast. It needs a big West swell to start working. Only breaks well on lower tides.

We recommend wearing a 3/2 wetsuit in the summer here when water temperatures rise to 20 degrees. In the winter a 4/3 is best when the water temperatures fall to 15 degrees. See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
