SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

Southern California, known for its sunny days, golden tans, and consistent summer weather is a hot spot for surf enthusiasts. Day time beach temperatures range between mid-high 70’s and it’s practically never that you will see a drop of rain during these summer months. By June water temperature are in the mid 60’s. People begin to lose the winter suits and are comfortable in a shorty or spring-suit. By late July and early August water temperatures can reach into the 70’s and you can often trunk it with a pair of shorts and a rash-guard.

Top California surf breaks such as Lowers Trestles, Huntington, and Oceanside hold some of the biggest surf competitions on the globe, attracting thousands of spectators annually. With a stretch of beach from Santa Barbara to San Diego, Southern California picks up multiple swell directions and provides hundreds of miles of surf opportunity year round for any ability level ranging from complete beginner to pro. With the majority of Southern California surf spots being sand bottom, this makes for a safer experience for those learning.

During the summer months besides surf you will always be occupied. Some of the larger events to mention a few include the Surf Festival in Hermosa Beach, the U.S Open of Surfing in Huntington Beach, The X Games, The U.S Open of Beach Volleyball in Hermosa Beach and Manhattan Beach, and the Boost Mobile Pro surf competition at Lower trestles.
