Poor conditions right now. Tiny waves under 1ft with quality 10s ground swell but pretty windy at 14kt Note: winds from E would be better. Might want to wait for better conditions.

📍 Local Knowledge

Francis Beach in San Mateo is an exposed beach break with fairly consistent surf year-round, offering both left and right-handers. It works best with groundswells from the west and offshore winds from the east, particularly around high tide. While winter—especially January—delivers the most consistent clean waves, the spot can work in any season. Unlike more remote beaches nearby, Francis Beach is fairly popular and can get crowded at times. Surfers should be mindful of rips and occasional shark activity. Optimal conditions occur when a west swell aligns with easterly offshore winds.
