Refugio State Beach

20 miles west of Santa Barbara on highway 101.
This doesn't look like much here but yesterday this place LIT UP in the big NW swell. A little surprising to me since this is a south facing break, but whatever, it was fun as all getout. Made the trip with B. Williams & we met up with her friend Gay Mike there. We'd intended to go to like Ventura, but it wasn't happening much, and Rincon looked crazy, and Mike talked B. Williams into it and B. Williams talked me into it. Not what I'd bargained for, driving 4 hours RT on my day off from commuting from San Diego, but well worth it. Got to discover a beautiful spot after a beautiful drive, got to surf with Mike who is great, plus it's always good to have the gay out on the waves. Mike's from up there and he said it normally doesn't really break at Refugio, but because of the particular conditions, which included a great offshore wind, it was rare chance at the spectacular. Cute B. Williams and her cute dog Wolfgang played on the beach, Mike rode the more knarly beach break on his tiny fish because homie has been surfing his whole life, and after falling several times for no reason, The Capt'n here picked up some big-ass right bombs outside at the point. Eye of the tiger.
