Rocky Point Surf Guide
A huge, curved arc of flat reef that is sheltered in most conditions, but wakes when a big swell lights up the North Track. This spot has a fast, hollow right that tends to draw a crowd, plus longer, walling lefts. Used to only be surfed in massive swells but now popular with beginners and a growing longboard crew whenever it breaks. Great views across to Lobos. Also known as Punta Elena / Rocky Point.
Local Vibe
Can be busy, but pretty chilled.
Crowd Factor
Busy when good

Sheltered reef that only wakes in bigger swells, can have long, fun waves, occasionally very good on inside.

Rocks on inside, crowds.
