    If you live nearby, ride your bike. Parking on weekends is a nightmare. One of the most consistent surf spots on the southbay area. Love it.

    The parking lot nearest to the first entrance is a mix of old school, change based parking meters and modern, credit card friendly versions. The difference is easy to spot; choose wisely.

    The food shack has THE best hummus, but ask for extra pita. A little pricey but worth it.

    A quarter gets you 10 minutes... Dont forget your watch. For surfers, parking patrol strikes more fear than sharks! Better run when you spot them hunting. A parking ticket is $48!

    Parking here is a clusterfuck, but don't honk if you're stuck in line. Helps no one.

    Don't forget your quarters. 5 hour parking, meters enforced from 8 am to 8 pm everyday.
