Should I be worried about jellyfish or other sea creatures?

It is possible, but very rare to encounter jellyfish & even more rare to see sharks. Even on the cyclical days of the month that jellyfish are more likely be more present (the 8th, 9th & 10th days after a full moon), it is still very rare to find one in the area where we surf. Jellyfish stings may be uncomfortable, but are by no means something that requires medical attention unless you have an allergy. If you are at all concerned about jellyfish, we recommend wearing pants such as yoga or work out pants to help protect your skin. Our long sleeve surf shirts provide protection for the upper body.

Occasionally, you may encounter bees drowning in the ocean. If you are allergic to bees, please inform us ahead of time.

You may also see sea turtles, seals, and other small fish in the surf area. If you’re lucky, you’ll see dolphins further out or whales jumping on the horizon during the winter season.
