Clam Beach

Clam Beach is a W-facing beach break in Humboldt County, California, United States. It picks up swell from SSW to N, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 34% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the E: light winds or E breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while W onshores chop it up.
