Steamer Lane - Santa Cruz California Surf Spots

This is a world-class spot located in Santa Cruz. There are four main peaks at Steamer Lane. All four can produce well-shaped, consistent, and powerful waves. Indicator is a long, hollow wave inside. Middle Peak breaks a couple of hundred yards out from Lighthouse Point. The Point is the peak at the very tip of Lighthouse Point. And the Slot is the break between the Point and Middle Peak. Although the breaks at Steamer Lane can be incredible, they can also get very crowded and competitive. Best Boards: Shortboard.
