Description

Big Lagoon - California Big Lagoon features a powerful and fun beach break with waves breaking to the right and left over a sandy bottom. The spot is best surfed during low tide, with optimal conditions arising from east winds and northwest, west, or southwest swells. Located in a remote area, Big Lagoon offers an uncrowded experience throughout the week and on weekends. Surfers should be cautious of strong rips and undertow, which can pose dangers, especially for less experienced surfers. The scenic backdrop and string currents add to the allure of this hidden gem, making it a worthwhile destination for those seeking solitude and quality waves.
