Spot guide
Castle Rock Beach is an SSW-facing beach break in Los Angeles, California, United States. It picks up swell from SSE and S to SW and SW to W, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 68% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NNE: light winds or NNE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SSW onshores chop it up.
