Spot Guide
Palmers Point is a rocky point break located on the rugged Humboldt County coastline where consistent Pacific swells wrap around the headland to create peeling, well-defined waves. The ESE-facing point produces quality shape across a variety of swell directions, with particularly strong performance during autumn when larger Pacific storms send organized groundswell toward the California coast. This relatively secluded spot offers a genuine local vibe with manageable crowds and rewards surfers with the skill to navigate the rocky bottom and changing conditions.
