Southern California: An Outsider Looking In

Every hill comes with a mystery on its horizon as I searched the coast for a fun wave. All the commotion from the nearby cities is somehow hidden, creating an abundance of sea cliffs and classic breaks.

Fresh to the Southern California area, the beauty of the mornings and the surf culture that embodies the coastline amazes me. Every hill comes with a mystery on its horizon as I searched the coast for a fun wave. All the commotion from the nearby cities is somehow hidden, creating an abundance of sea cliffs and classic breaks. The marine layer is like a blanket that the sun shines its rays through to wake the sea.
