With famed areas like La Jolla and Point Loma catching swells from the north, west or south to the equally sought out river-mouth of Trestles at San Diego’s northern edge, the area has waves for all levels of surfer and a dedicated community to match. No matter your style or board, San Diego has just the right wave for you, which makes it a hot spot for surf schools and surf lessons. The end of summer and early fall see the best swells, but no matter the time of year, you’ll always see boards in the water looking for a perfect wave. Remember, too, that the water reaches an ideal temp in June. And, hey, if you need a little inspiration while you’re in town, check out the California Surf Museum in nearby Oceanside.
The best months for surfing in San Diego are from August through November, but you can surf year-round if you want. The water starts getting comfortably warm in June.
Chances are pretty good inclement weather won’t get in the way of your surfing holiday. Remember that as quickly as a storm rolls in, it’ll often roll out. Be sure to ask your provider for more details.
Group sizes are usually between 1 – 5 people with one instructor. Also, remember that the costs decrease as the group grows, so it’s the perfect opportunity to surf with friends and family.
