Description

# Seacliff Beach - California Seacliff Beach features a beach break with both right and left waves, breaking over a sandy bottom. The wave power is classified as ordinary, making it suitable for various skill levels. Access is straightforward via Cabrillo Highway (1), leading to Seacliff State Beach, where a pedestrian pier offers instant access to the surf. The iconic wreck of the SS Palo Alto, a concrete tanker from WWI, lies at the pier's end, enhancing the spot's unique character. The beach typically sees few surfers on weekends and remains empty during the week, providing a tranquil surfing experience. Ideal swell directions come from the Northwest, West, Southwest, and South, making it a versatile spot for different conditions.
