Extremely exposed ocean spot with frequent waves of 2 to 5m. Water is frigid (9-13°C/48-55°F), a 5/3 wetsuit with hood, gloves, and booties is mandatory. Sandy and rocky bottom. Rip currents and drift currents among the most dangerous in California. North Pacific swells arrive with no obstruction whatsoever. Conditions are constantly powerful.
One of the most dangerous spots in California. Great white sharks — Point Reyes is the epicenter of the Red Triangle, world's largest concentration. Deadly currents that have swept people away. Massive and unpredictable waves. Frigid water — hypothermia in minutes without proper gear. Totally isolated environment — no rescue services nearby. Dense fog. Unstable cliffs. Very difficult access. National Seashore — strict regulations.
