General information
From surfline: Five miles of classic California beaches and communities. Again, the best bet is lower tides, dual swells and to hope for sandbars. All spots south of Manhattan are increasingly shadowed from south/summer swell. Hermosa Beach is the most happening surf/beach town in the South Bay. There's something going on every week during the prime summer months -- craft fairs, parades, concerts and the annual surf festival held in early August. Hermosa is also the home of Body Glove and the Cuervo Gold Volleyball Tour. Check out our "Interview With a Local" with Hermosa Beach's ex-mayor/surfer Bob Burgie Benz -- he's an event all his own.
