Santa Monica Beach.

Small surf. Plenty of power.

I really enjoyed this session at Santa Monica. I got in at 8am, and even though the waves stayed under a meter, they felt bigger in the water. They were consistent and had plenty of power. Every wave seemed ready to take me all the way back to shore.

I'd catch one, get carried in really fast, then run back into the water and do it all again. I went back so many times, but I was having too much fun to mind. It turned into a great workout, and it felt really good to move that much and let go of the stress.

I came away tired in a good way, with a much clearer head. And that sunset at the end of the day made it even better. Fun waves, a good workout, and a beautiful place to be. I'd wholeheartedly recommend Santa Monica.
