Read MoreSuck Rock
Suck Rock is a great wave and can get double-overhead before closing out. It’s at the north end of La Lora beach, which is a great “beach break“.

Usually the surf is closing out on the Santa Teresa side, so when that happens, surfers “in the know” will check out this point to see if it’s working. On this day, the waves were large enough to wash up onto the asphalt...
