- naveenFebruary 12, 2017San-O is one of the most iconic surf spots in Cali. Worth a trip to paddle out or to watch California's best party wave.Upvote6Downvote
A true surf beach. Soft, rolling waves that offer long rides. The Point, Old Man's and Trails surf breaks are all located here. Make a day of it... what I call a San O day!

"One of the most beautiful places I have ever been. And it’s also one of the most unique view points of the ocean I have seen. The ocean stretches on for as far as the eye can see without blockage"

"Nice campground but you are very close to your neighbors. The freeway is also right by the campsite (surprisingly quiet). Definitely does not feel like you are out in nature but good for amateurs"
Michael Morgan 
"Beautiful, rugged views of the coast and access down to the beach. While this is a “relatively easy” walk down to the beach it is still a trek so make sure to bring water!"
