Santa Clara Rivermouth surf guide

Surf: One of California’s best rivermouth breaks when everything comes together, also one of the most polluted spots on the West Coast, especially after rain. Then again, perfect sandbars (sometimes called the Star Bar) can form after heavy rains, creating high-quality, A-frame peaks spinning off long, fast walls in both directions. Holds up to several feet overhead. Deep, makeable tube sections. Bad localism. Gets crowded, but for good reason. Accessed from the south end of Spinnaker Drive.
