San Clemente State Beach

[Zed]

Camping at San Clemente State Beach, is there a good place to launch yak there or in the area? Any good fishing there?

I'm partial to the beach.

There is very little shelter. Mateo Rock can block some swell, but look for channels in the bars. If the swell has any S in it, it will be big, with suck-up inside section. W-NW swell is generally blocked by Catalina. And the hill is a beyotch to drag up, after a long day on the water.

Tell us how your fishing went. The kelp is looking better.
