Description

Hollywood Beach - Southern California Hollywood Beach features a powerful beach break with hollow and fast waves, breaking both right and left over a sandy bottom mixed with rocks. The spot is best surfed during mid tide with a rising tide, and it thrives on swells from the north, northwest, west, and southwest. This location is known for its vibrant atmosphere, often regarded as one of the best beach breaks in Southern California. While the waves can be challenging due to heavy currents, experienced surfers will find it rewarding. However, be cautious of localism and potential dangers such as rips and sharks. Access requires a long walk of over 30 minutes, and parking can be problematic. Weekdays tend to be less crowded, while weekends attract a large number of surfers, making it essential to be mindful of the local scene.
