Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

Ocean Beach Pier in San Diego County is an exposed beach and reef break that delivers dependable surf, with winter being the most consistent season for clean waves, despite summer also offering favorable conditions. It works best with west swells and offshore winds from the east. The spot receives more groundswells than windswells, and the beach break offers both lefts and rights, performing best around mid tide. Ocean Beach Pier is often crowded and presents several hazards including rips, rocks, pollution, and localism. The best conditions are reported when a west swell combines with easterly offshore winds, with January being the most reliable month.
