Surf Travel Guide - Exotic Holiday Place
One of the most famous surf areas in the continental US, and possibly the world, the town of
Huntington Beach has long been associated with the Southern California surf scene. Originally an oil town, it was in 1925 that Duke Kahanamoku brought the sport of surfing to Huntington Beach and the Southern California shores. The city's first surf shop, Gordie's Surf Boards, opened in 1953 and six years later, the first US Surfing Championships were held in Huntington Beach. It's now the home of possibly the largest surf and music festival in the world, with the US Open of Surfing set to start on 2nd August.now it is easy to get best information about Surf travel guide.
Huntington State Beach, to the east of town, is a good stretch of summer beach-break. Very
exposed to the south swells, it gets blown out every afternoon, but on early morning glass at 3-6 feet, it's fantastic!To enjoy this you must need some knowledge over surf travel guide.
Huntington Pier is an icon in the surfing world. One of the most photographed spots there is,
it epitomises Southern California's surf scene. Peaky beach-breaks, sunsets, weird people on the beach when you come in. It takes swell from the south through nor west, and changes personality accordingly. South of the pier has A-frame peaks, and if the swell is south, some lined up lefts to 8ft plus. North side has lefts and rights, but some solid right outside peaks on a winter swell, running under the pier itself. All in all a consistent, quality spot, but no secret - you'll share it with many. Alltides, although high no good if small. All levels, 1-12ft.
A stroll or quick drive west of the pier can reward with a bunch of beach breaks that spreads the crowds out, although they hold a bit less swell due to the absence of jetties. A couple of miles up the PCH is Huntington Cliffs. Another quality beach-break that gets fast and hollow at lower tide. Southwest swell hits with most power, and the spot holds considerable size compared to some. South swells make it a mellow experience. Needs early morning glass or is a serious mess. Crowds, 2-8ft+. All levels.

Who has experience surfing in Baja Mexico?
Since my plans for a surf trip to Costa Rica fell through - I want to plan a trip to Baja Mexico sometime in the Mar-May time frame. I have done little to no research so far so I'm not sure whether northern or souther baja might be better. I'm thinking northern since I can drive there (i live in socal) but I'd like to hear from others who've been. Is it safe to drive? What should I bring? What should I avoid? Good spots. I won't be bringing a ton of friends and we are respectful of wherever we go. We don't litter and we don't wave hog - it's all about sharing.
I plan on buying a book but would like to hear recommendations. Any help would be appreciated!
The northern state of Baja has a number of good spots. Alisitos/La Mision, Salsipuedes, and San Miguel are local favorites, fairly close to the San Ysidro border crossing. Check the surfing websites for local conditions. Winter surf especially good right now.
