The truth is that the number one spot probably hasn’t been found yet. No, really. It isn’t called the “frontier of surfing” for nothing! Wild and rocky, with insane winds and more shark attacks on humans than anywhere else in the world, the Californian coastline from San Francisco county up to the Oregon border is a forsaken stretch; the alluring warmth and more favorable conditions of the southern beaches drawing all but the toughest (and ballsiest) surfers. However, it would be a mistake to cross these shores off of your surf trip lists; some of the most amazing waves can kick up here when the right wind conditions meet powerful west/northwest swells in season. If you’re properly experienced and up for an adventure, it’s possible you’ll find the ride of your life out here, on uncrowded waves, amid scenery to make your jaw drop. Pack your neoprene (at least 4mm, please), find your Zen place, and bone up on NorCal’s most unforgettable surf destinations.
