San Gabriel Rivermouth surf guide
Surf: A.k.a. Power Plant, The River, Ray Bay, Seal Beach Jetty. Soft, fun sandbar peak between the jetties, right in the rivermouth. Needs peaky S-SW swells and lower tides. Canβt handle any real size. The neighboring peak off the south jetty is Crabs, a small righthand sandbar wave.
Beware of numerous sand sharks and stingrays (step lightly).
Directions: Access is at the south end of Ocean Avenue in Seal Beach.
Environment: Water is warmer here than at surrounding spots, so consider increased likelihood of pollution after rain.
