THE ACTIVITIES

SURFING SAN DIEGO

70 Miles of Coastline to Suit Any Level 

 

A variety of different of waves and conditions along San Diego’s 70 miles of open ocean coastline to suit your individual style and ability. Wide choice of waves from a high performance break – Trestles, to a mellow longboarders/learners wave at Old Man’s. 

 

MISSION BEACH

 

The long, sandy shore comprising Pacific, Mission and Ocean beaches might not be world class breaks but offer reliable surf with an easy access and surfers manage to make the most of it. Like all the other popular beaches in town, lifeguards divide swimmers from surfers in the busy summer months, and it’s important to make sure you’re where you belong. What the surf itself lacks, the beach scene more than makes up for, and the P.B. – M.B. boardwalk is always bustling with activity.

 

TRESTLES

A world-famous river-mouth point break at the border of San Diego and Orange Counties. You’ve got to earn your waves at Trestles, with a long hike in from the parking lot and fierce competition from 50+ other surfers in the lineup, many of them experts and even professionals. Trestles works best on a good south to southwest swell, and when it’s on, a session at Trestles can be epic.

 

OLD MAN’S

Slow, easy rollers just down the coast at Old Man’s are perfect for learning or easy longboarding.

 

OCEANSIDE

Miles of gentle beach break, but it’s best known for the jetties on either side of its harbor entrance. On the steepest of south swells that pass the rest of the coast by, Oceanside Harbor and Del Mar Beach (on the Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base) can get big and hollow.

 

SWAMI’S

Named so for the Indian-styled Self-Realization Fellowship complex on the bluff, is another San Diego special with a well-defined peak and a crowd beyond its capacity. Swami’s makes just enough of a bend in the coast to pick up a little extra swell energy so it’s always a bit bigger and better than its neighboring breaks.

 

CARDIFF

A short cobblestone beach with reefs at either end. Tabletops to the south and Cardiff Reef to the north are both fun shouldery waves, best on southwest swells and ideal for cutbacks and action in the lip. In these nurturing conditions, pros like Rob Machado and Taylor Knox honed their trade.

 

DEL MAR

Among the most reliable spots in San Diego with good exposure to all swell directions and a good mix of sand bottom beach break and patchy reefs. Even in the height of summer, the crowd spreads out from the river-mouth all the way to Torrey Pines State Beach, and it’s easy to find a wave to call your own.

 

BLACKS BEACH

Possibly San Diego’s best wave. It’s good year-round, always one of the biggest spots in town, and breaks in long, organized lines. A submarine trench offshore comes within a half mile of the coast and raw ocean swells come marching in fast and forceful before expending their energy in big hollow peaks. Black’s requires a long hike down the cliff, and a lot of extra paddling effort to get into the lineup. It can hold rideable surf well into the 10′-12′ realm, but at that size it’s nearly impossible to break through the inside whitewater.

 

LA JOLLA SHORES

One of San Diego’s best and most popular beaches. Somewhat protected from the prevailing southwest wind, it’s a safe, gentle spot to learn or enjoy surfing. There are year-round lifeguard services, good facilities and decent parking. 

ACTION SPORTS RENTALS

Watersports Fun on Mission Bay

✔ Kayaking

CRUISE MISSION BAY

Enjoy a San Diego Sunset on the Bahia Belle

The 74-foot, 3-story sternwheeler offers an observation deck to view the beautiful sites of the 4,200-acre aquatic park, and is the perfect venue to relax and unwind at the end of the day.

 

Enjoy a picturesque sunset, drinks, snacks, and family activities until 9:00 p.m., after which the Bahia Belle transforms into the entertainment hub of Mission Bay with music and dancing late into the night.
