Oceanside Pier

Intermediate Beach break Sand bottom Peels both 0.7–2.7 m Any tide

One of Southern California's most consistent beach breaks: dependable peaks north and south of the pier that light up on west and northwest swells. Fast, punchy and rarely flat, with a well-established local scene and contest history (the Super Girl Pro is held here).
