Beach Access/Launching Pt. Dune Area

dont bother planning to go out malibu . high wind advisory. the wind blows more than 30 - 60 miles and hour at the launch site. if the surf is more the 1 - 2 , it is very nasty. breaks very vast and hard. combine that with the winds and swell. very difficult to get back in without a hobie. if anyone needs directions to launch site for future use, fell free to pm me.

Just treat Malibu like any other place, read the weather reports, surf reports, and swell, and wind reports.

There are many times where the weather is rough.



This reminds me of a story.


A few of us went out to fish Malibu a while back and the surf was killer. I claimed it was 5 ft wave, some denied it, and gave all these theories about being 2 to 3 ft.


My point being the surf was big. One of my friends got SWALLOWED BY THE WAVE. Sad to say he does not go there anymore.Cost him 800 dollars in damage.


OKCIRE


as Belcom once said "that place can produce the surf from hell"

Yes, you are right. I said it was a 6ft wave



So ill stick to my story! 6ft WAVE Annihilation!

You had to be there to experience the magnitude of the wave the photo does it no justice.

That's way bigger than 5ft has to be at least 12-15ft. Look at that barrel, you could pull a semi truck in it.

I launch esco quite a bit. As long as you do your due diligence its a great launch and not a bad paddle to bkr at all.
