The west coast ranges from warm water, sandy beaches in San Diego to cold water, cliffs, wild wind and sharks in the north. This should be enough to satisfy any surfer! From the beginner who wants to learn to surf in San Diego from a blonde beach betty, to the ever-searching big-wave seeker sitting alone in the frigid waters off Lincoln City Oregon... waiting for that monster wave.
A surf adventure starts when you start dreaming and it reaches it's peak when you're in the water, surfing your brains out. But some of the best times are re-living the sessions over and over again with your buddies. I've surfed all over the west coast, from the southern-most city in the US to the lonely waters of Washington State, and I think we are blessed to have so much beautiful surf. So get a map and get on the road, but remember that it's the adventure that matters... it's the way it changes your soul that matters.
