Description

Bee Hives - Rancho Palos Verdes, California Bee Hives features a right-breaking reef wave with a rocky bottom, known for its hollow, fast, and ledgey characteristics. This spot is best surfed during mid to high tide with rising tide conditions, primarily on the biggest winter swells. Access is available from the Terranea Resort or a scenic turnout on PV Drive South, requiring a short walk (5-15 minutes) to the beach. Nestled along the picturesque Palos Verdes Peninsula, Bee Hives offers a unique surf experience amidst stunning scenery. While the wave can deliver a short in-and-out tube on good days, it often results in closeouts on average days. The spot is relatively obscure, attracting only a few surfers during the week and weekends. Be prepared for localism and potential hazards like urchins and sharp rocks. Although not the most consistent surf destination, it provides an adventurous outing for those willing to navigate its challenges.
