Black Point Beach Surf Guide
Black Point is a fickle beachbreak along the 10-mile-long, 5,200-acre Sea Ranch subdivision. Since Black Point itself extends west, its surfable side is offshore during SE wind and it often gets good with smaller swells during the winter. It can hold some size, but getting out is no small task. The place can and does get hollow, especially during SE wind. A good place to check when the swell is too small for the other spots in the area.
