Local Knowledge & Surf Guide
Local Knowledge
Crescent Bay in Orange County is a moderately exposed beach and reef break with fairly consistent surf. It works best with groundswells from the south-southwest and offshore winds from the east-northeast, with some protection from west-northwest winds. The beach break offers both left and right-handers and performs well across all tide stages. While winter—particularly January—provides the cleanest, most consistent conditions, summer can also offer favorable surf. Crowds are common when the waves are good, and surfers should watch out for strong rips.
