Large South Swell Piles onto La Jolla Reefs

The Windansea lineup

Well, this south swell was a bit much for Del Mar so I decided to travel a few miles down the coast to see how some of the La Jolla reefs were doing.  A reef just south of Children's Pool (where a sponger ask me not to post any photos of the place on the internet. Right, a La Jolla secret spot), Horseshoes, Windansea and Big Rock were all looking pretty good.  But, the sets were too much for any of those places to handle. Big messy close outs on the sets with some nice bowls and shoulders on the in betweeners.  Not the biggest swell, nor the shapeliest but there were some nice rides nonetheless.  Take a look:
