The Ranch – Rights and Lefts surf guide

The Ranch – Rights and Lefts is a surf spot that's known for its variety of waves. It's a place where surfers can enjoy both left and right-handers, which is a nice mix for those looking to switch it up. Located in a scenic area, the vibe is pretty relaxed, making it a decent choice for surfers who want to catch some waves without the crowds typical of more popular spots.

This spot works best with southwest and northwest swells. You can catch waves in sizes starting from around 2 feet (0.6 meters), so it’s not for the big wave hunters, but it can be fun in the right conditions. The waves break over a rock ledge, which means some care is needed to avoid getting banged up. When conditions are good, surfers can enjoy both left and right waves. Low to mid-tide is preferred here, and if the wind’s coming from the north, that’s ideal.

Since The Ranch – Rights and Lefts breaks over rock ledges, it's a good idea to be mindful of where you're surfing and the potential for shallow spots. It's an area that suits intermediate surfers better, as there can be some tricky spots. Pay attention to the tide and swell direction to make the most of your session.
