📍 Local Knowledge
Ward Avenue in Mendocino County is an exposed beach break with fairly consistent surf, particularly during winter. It performs best on clean groundswells from the west, complemented by offshore winds from the east-southeast. The break features both left and right-hand waves and is notable for rarely being crowded. The most reliable clean conditions are typically seen in January. Surfers should be cautious of hazards such as rip currents, rocks, sharks, and localism.
