Stanley's surf guide

Surf: General: Most surfers know that the hollow right slide known as Stanley's, named after the diner in front of the break, was destroyed in 1970 to make room for Highway 101. What most surfers don't known, however, is that Stanley's ghost lives. It's called Offramps, and during a large, short-period swell and medium tide, it offers a quick, hollow little right that siphons off onto a shallow sandbar. Offramps doesn't compare to its predecessor (or so we're told) and doesn't show its face all that often, but it's worth a visit when the conditions are in alignment. Take the Seacliff Exit from Highway 101, and you'll be right on top of it. Tides: low Size: head-high Wind: E Swell: W windswell Bottom: Sand Paddling: Not too bad. Spot Rating: Hollow righthander that's a shadow of its former self. Access: Easy, just follow the sign. Crowds: Crowd Factor: None. Local Vibe: None. Environment: Manageable but can be rough after a rain. Hazards: Rocks. Season: February-May
