South Oregon Surf Breaks
Oregon South is open to some big swells and is often pounded with some good surf. With more beaches than you can count there are plenty of options to choose from. Most breaks are sandy beach breaks although there is a mixture of reefs and points. Typically finding a good wave can be quite the challenge though. Big swells that come out of the NW hit the whole of the coast and lighten up several man made spots which have protection form the wind, such as jetties. Sharks and other wildlife are quite common. Water temperature is quite low all year round so a winter wetsuit is needed.
