Double Point Surf Guide

It is actually illegal sometimes to go onto the beach at Double Point because it's in a National Seashore and is a seal rookery. But this is only closed during breeding season and when they have their pups. Extremely sharky waters here!!!.. Best by boat... But the paddle back to the boat is always creepy best to do in a pack of guys .. and that's my advice on this messed up spot. Really not that great.. (info provided by a local surfer)

Jay from United States
“The wave sucks, and it's not worth the time and effort to get skunked 95% of the time. Also, there are lots of seals, so there are lots of sharks looking for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I should've just gone to surf Stinson beach and get decent waves that only are a 3 minute walk from the car.”
