Paradise surf guide

Paradise is known for its pointbreak rights that can be pretty fun when the conditions are right. It's a spot that attracts surfers looking for decent waves, especially when the southeast swells are rolling in along with those northwest winds. Just keep in mind that it can get crowded when the waves are firing, so be ready to share the lineup.

The waves at Paradise are best when the swell is coming from the southeast, but it can also handle some northeast and south swells. The optimal size is around 2 ft. (0.6 m) but it can work well with larger swells too. The break works over an uneven reef and typically offers nice, hollow rights for the more experienced surfers. Low tide is the best time to catch the waves, as it keeps you off the rocks and allows the point to perform its best.

Since this spot suits expert surfers, it's a place to test your skills. Make sure to pay attention to the wind direction, as northwest winds are preferable for getting the cleanest waves. Overall, if you're looking for a solid day of surfing and don’t mind sharing a little, you might just find what you want at Paradise.
