Continuing North our next surf destination was the popular Rincon. Known as the “Queen of the Coast” this spot sits between Ventura and Santa Barbara County and is most famous for it’s long, peeling and overcrowded rights. After a small but fun session at Malibu we had no idea what to expect from Rincon and after hiking down to the beach we were surprised when we saw this:
WAVES! BIG WAVES!
With a shoulder to shoulder crowd and waves head high and bigger, Harper and I decided to sit this one out. After watching guys get spit out of barrels, thrashed up onto rocks, boards snapping and lots of local attitude I’m pretty sure my decision was a wise one. The action on the beach was much more my style…kisses, babies climbing on long boards, leisurely naps in the sand and a killer sunset.
Not bad California…not bad at all!
