Surf: Beachbreak peaks at the south end of Torrance County Beach; mostly rights. Good with peaky W-NW swells and higher tides; fairly consistent and ridden regularly, especially during the summer. Gets hollow with outgoing tide; bad rip currents. R.A.T. Beach is often surfable when the beachbreak to the north is too big. Environment: Access is through Torrance County Beach, along Paseo de la Playa in Torrance.
