📍 Local Knowledge
Natural Bridges in Santa Cruz is a sheltered right-hand reef break known for its fairly consistent surf, especially during winter, with January offering the most reliable conditions. The break works best when distant northwest swells combine with offshore winds from the northeast. While it’s a scenic and popular spot, it can get crowded, and surfers should be cautious of localism and shark presence.
