Milady is a pocket beach that serves as a decent spot for surfers looking for a low-key session. It’s not as crowded as some of the other local beaches, making it good for those who prefer a bit more space in the lineup. The beach is easily accessible with a parking lot and street parking nearby, so getting there is pretty straightforward.
When it comes to surfing, Milady can handle swells from the west and north. It’s best to check it out when the swell is around 1ft (0.3 meters) as that’s when you might find some fun walls breaking over the uneven reef and sandy bottom. The waves can be a mix of lefts and rights, but they tend to be a bit crumbly and disorganized, especially at higher tides. For the best experience, aim for low to mid tides. This spot works well for beginners who don't mind the occasional rocky section.
The wind is usually best from the southeast, which helps shape the waves a bit better. Overall, Milady offers a laid-back vibe with less consistency than some nearby surf spots, so don’t expect perfect conditions every time you go out. However, if you're in the area, it’s worth a shot when the conditions are right.
