When shooting the ocean you...

Geologists believe the volcano erupted 15-20 million years ago leaving behind columns of lava which make ...
Surf the South Jetty, Oceanside Harbor
The jetty's of Oceanside Harbor serve to protect and stabilize the mouth of the San Luis Rey River meaning the sand and subsequent breaks remain fairly consistent and sand bars last for quite some time. After heavy rains large sand bars will form making for decent waves. It is also a great place for beach running (so bring your swimrun shoes).
The best swells are mixed: big S-SW with a smaller ...
