There are a couple of spots near Sunset Cliffs. Bermuda Ave. and Cable St. I think. You have to carry you yak down to the launch and deal with the surf.

I always launched from SI and paddled around Pt. Loma. It's a long paddle, but easier launch and better parking.

thanks, i was at the cliffs on saturday and saw some open beach but the waves were a little big for my liking and like you said the parking isn't the best.

If your good at getting out through some white water, just South of the pier.

Orchard/Cable can be a good one, but there is a lot of structure just below the surface that really mixes things up.

Just south of the OB pier is usually not doable. I launched there once and ended up landing at Orchard because of the swell.

Bermuda can be a peice of cake, but it can also be impossible. It just depends on the tide and swell. It's also a pain to get down to the water with a kayak because of the narrow stairway.

Check them out, and bring your kayak with you incase you find a spot that looks doable. Good luck.
