Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

Marina State Beach in Monterey is an exposed beach break with very consistent surf year-round, performing best with offshore winds from the east-southeast. The spot works best around mid tide as it rises and is rarely crowded, even when the surf is good. Surfers should be aware of hazards like rips and sharks. Optimal conditions occur when a west swell aligns with east-southeast offshore winds, with the most consistent clean waves typically during winter, especially in January.
