Spanish Bay-South Moss Surf Report & Forecast

Local Knowledge

Spanish Bay-South Moss in Monterey is an exposed beach break with fairly consistent surf year-round, performing best with offshore winds from the southeast. It receives a mix of groundswells and windswells, favoring swells from the west, and offers both left and right-hand waves. The spot works best around low tide and can sometimes get crowded. Surfers should be cautious of rocks and sharks. Optimal conditions occur when a west swell aligns with southeast offshore winds, with the most consistent clean waves typically during winter, especially in January.
