A friendly La Jolla beachbreak that peels both lefts and rights around the pier-south side sandbars punch harder after winter WNW pulses. Get the latest surfing conditions, forecast, and tide details for Scripps Pier South Side in California.
Forecast
As of:
South-side sandbars by the pier concentrate peaks and can offer faster, more hollow sections than the rest of the beach, so expect heavier takeoffs when a winter WNW pulse reshapes the banks.
Works best on W-WNW groundswells with E-SE winds offshore/sideshore and mid-to-rising tides.
Expect crowds near the pier that diffuse south toward La Jolla Shores.
