Local Knowledge & Surf Guide
Local Knowledge
The Wedge in Orange County is a fairly exposed beach break with fairly consistent surf, best during spring—especially in April. It performs best when south-southwest groundswells combine with offshore north winds, producing predominantly left-hand waves. Optimal conditions occur around mid tide as the tide is rising. The spot is often crowded, and surfers should be mindful of hazards such as rips and locals. These factors make The Wedge a notable location for spring surf forecasting.
