Swamis Surf Spot, United States

Swami’s is one of Southern California’s iconic right-hand point breaks, peeling across a rocky reef beneath the palm-lined bluffs of Encinitas. Winter west and northwest groundswell transforms the point into long, clean walls that begin with a relatively forgiving takeoff before accelerating across the shallow inside reef. Smaller days favor longboards, fishes and cruisier surfing, while solid winter swells bring out high-performance shortboards and step-ups. Excellent wave quality, long rides and an unmistakable Southern California setting make Swami’s a landmark surf destination—although its popularity means surfers should expect a competitive lineup and respect the established local crew.
