Description
Fernald Point - California
Fernald Point features a right point break with a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. This spot typically requires a significant swell to produce rideable waves and is best surfed during low to mid tide on a falling tide.
Accessing Fernald Point involves a good walk of 15-30 minutes east from Miramar or paddling out from the creek. The waves are fun but can be inconsistent, making it crucial to wait for the right conditions, particularly with a swell from the northwest or west. The area is known to be crowded during the week and ultra-crowded on weekends, so surfers should be prepared for a busy lineup. Caution is advised due to the presence of rocks in the surf zone.
