Highlights

Giant waves from winter storm swells (record around 18m)
Safe viewing from coastal cliffs and lookout points
World-class big-wave surfers on tow-in boards
The cold, wild grandeur of the North Pacific

Good to know

SafetyCold water (wetsuit essential) plus reef and strong currents make it extremely dangerous — expert-only.
SeasonThe biggest waves form on winter storm swells (Nov–Mar); conditions are hard to predict, so check daily.
·Even without surfing, watching from the cliff lookout (Pillar Point) alone is spectacular.
