Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

Mendocino Township in Mendocino County, California offers a mix of semi-exposed reef and beach breaks spread across several coves and river mouths, picking up west to northwest swells. The waves range from soft, rolling peaks to more defined reef sections, with both lefts and rights depending on the spot. It performs best around mid to high tide with light offshore winds from the east or northeast and sees its most consistent surf from fall through early spring. The area is typically uncrowded, and hazards include rip currents, submerged rocks, cold water, and shifting sandbars.
