Road Trip to Chase Swell

On Friday, July 24th a nice south swell came into Southern California. This swell brought in overhead size sets, and 25+ foot waves at the wedge.

and the spot I lost my camera at...North side of Point Mugu Rock was an amazing beach, with a steep slope, harsh trough, and waves that break onshore like Westward, Newport, and Bodega Bay in one.

Next spot on the list was Campus Point in Santa Barbara. The swell played perfect into Santa Barbara because of its difficult time to consistently get waves. There were sets coming in at about waist to shoulder high waves. With some nice front side liners peeling onto the beach.
