Move your mouse over the ocean swell symbols or the surf breaks on the coastline to see a more detailed surf forecast including wave period and wind conditions. The forecast updates every 6 hours and most live weather reports update every hour. You can animate the Del Norte County Surf map or show live wind and wave conditions as reported from wavebuoys and local weather stations.

Sadly most of Del Norte's surf spots are inaccessible, with the exception of Crescent City, which is a south facing crescent. South Beach picks up a cleaner wave and is more protected from large surf so pulls more crowds than other spots. With a generally gray climate, things can strike you as quite miserable whilst looking out to what seem to be wind blown conditions, although there are some breathtaking sites all up and down the coast and great waves to be had if you can find them.
With a mixture of reef, points and beach breaks if you can get to them then you'll more than likely have the wave to yourself.
