Surfing in the San Francisco Area & San Francisco Surf Locations Map

The greater San Francisco area has some terrific surfing but you need to drive a little bit outside the city to get to it.  

​

The surf is typically big and powerful all year-round, but especially so in the winter.  The air and water temperatures in the winter are cold so come prepared.  In the summer and spring/fall the weather can be nice and warm, but the water is always cold so best to bring a thick wetsuit at all times of the year.
