📍 Local Knowledge
The Hook in Santa Cruz is a popular and reliable right-hand point break that delivers clean, peeling waves, especially from November to March, with January often offering the most consistent surf. It works best with west to northwest swells and light offshore winds from the northeast. The wave performs well during a rising mid to high tide, producing long rides ideal for intermediate to advanced surfers. The Hook is known for its scenic setting and accessible location, which contribute to heavy crowds and a competitive lineup. Respect for local surfers and lineup etiquette is essential.
