Open Doors surf guide

Open Doors is a surf spot located on the east side of Isla Natividad. It's known for its dredging barrels that can be seen offshore in the afternoons. Be ready for some powerful waves that can really challenge your skills on both lefts and rights. This spot can get pretty crowded, so it’s good to have your game on if you're planning to hit the water here.

The waves at Open Doors work best with south swells, but they can handle swells coming from the southeast and northwest too. They can manage swell sizes from around 2ft (0.6 meters) up to bigger days. The bottom is sandy, and the wave type is beach break, which makes for fun rides if you know how to maneuver. The preferred wind direction here is northwest, and it can work on low, medium, and high tides. Just keep in mind that this spot is best suited for expert surfers due to the power of the waves.

If you’re looking for other surf options nearby, you might want to check out Siren Bay for some big wave action or Old Mans and Frijole for different types of breaks. Each spot has its own vibe, so exploring around can lead to some great sessions.
