Monterey Bay's Seascape Beach Resort

Monterey Bay's Seascape Beach Resort is an SW-facing beach break in Aptos, California, United States. It picks up swell from SSW to W, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 64% 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.
