How to score epic surf on the Mendocino Coast
Here are a few good tips when coming to the Mendocino coast to surf:
1. Don't bring more than 1 other person to a surf spot
2. Do follow surf etiquette
3. Do not drop in on a local
4. Do not Snake waves
5. Do not paddle to the peak, ever
6. Do not take a wave when it is not your turn
7. Do surf the spots that are less crowded
8. Do not share photos or geotags of the surf. It is not crowded here and we all hope it stays that way.
Have fun!
