Spot guide
Cox Bay is an SW-facing beach break in Tofino, British Columbia, Canada. It picks up swell from SSE to NW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 39% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NE: light winds or NE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SW onshores chop it up.
