Rockpile/Heisler Park Surf Forecast

Rockpile at Heisler Park is a rocky reef break that fires up when Southern Hemisphere swells wrap around the Southern California coast, delivering hollow, fast-peeling waves along its craggy bottom. The right-hand orientation from the park's vantage point makes it a fun ride for intermediate surfers, with waves that maintain shape and power across the rocky takeoff zone. Named for the obvious jagged rock formation that defines the break, this spot offers a more rugged alternative to the sandy beaches nearby, rewarding surfers who respect the rocky bottom and time their sessions around proper swell direction.
