Big Rock surf guide

Surf: Fun little reef wave off a small headland requiring S swells and an outgoing tide, rideable up to a foot or two overhead. High tide creates backwash. A few rock hazards. A summer wave and not surfed very often. Environment: Access via the public stairway (marked by blue-and-white trash cans) about 2 miles south of the Las Flores Canyon Road/PCH confluence.
