Zmudowski State Beach surf guide

Zmudowski State Beach is a surf spot located along the coast, offering a broad sandy beach that can accommodate various wave conditions. It's a place where surfers can enjoy the ocean while taking in the natural beauty around them. Parking is available for a fee, which is handy when you're heading out for a session.

The waves here are mainly beach breaks that can work well, especially when the swell size is around 3 ft (about 0.9 m). The best swell direction is from the west, but it can handle swells coming from the north and south too. Surfers will find both left and right breaking waves, making it a bit versatile. For the optimal experience, aim for low to mid tides, and you'll likely catch peaky and clean waves, especially when winds come from the east.

Zmudowski doesn't have a reputation for being overly crowded, which can be a plus for surfers looking for a session with a little more space. Just keep in mind to watch for rips, and enjoy your time in the water!
