Description

Greyhound Rock - California Greyhound Rock features powerful left-hand reef breaks over flat rocks and sand, ideal for experienced surfers. The spot works best with NW swells and is consistent at low and mid tides, particularly during rising and falling tides. Access is straightforward, with a short 5-15 minute walk from a well-established parking area. This surf area, located between Scotts Creek and Waddell Creek, is known for its epic waves, especially the heavy wedge-like left in front of the main rock. The northern left on a submerged reef is also noteworthy, offering a perfect barrel for seasoned riders. While the spot can be lonely in winter, it remains a hidden gem with fewer crowds during the week. However, surfers should be cautious of potential dangers, including rocks and sharks, as the area is known for its fishing activity.
