Pesky
A compact, rocky reef along the Sunset Cliffs stretch of Point Loma (locals say Pesky or Pescadero) that throws lefts and rights with some push—best on west to northwest groundswell. The lineup sits on the northwest San Diego coast north of the Ocean Beach pier (not the far-south Point Loma points like Ralph's), with a short paddle from the cliffs.

Lineup Insights
The Wave
Best surf comes on W-NW groundswells with an easterly offshore (or light ENE) breeze.
Mid to high incoming tides usually clean the zone and low tides expose the sharper rock lines.
Lineup Guide
The reef sits tight to the cliffs and exposes shallow rock and channels - expect sharp takeoffs, rips and limited exit options that raise consequence.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
