This spot is more of a 'Sonoma' break than a Marin break, because it is way out there and out of Marin County and more towards Sonoma. You have to take Sir Francis Drake Boulevard from highway 1 all the way towards the lighthouse (about 45 minute drive), then turn off at 'Drake's Beach' sign as you are nearing the lighthouse. Park in lot and hike SE down beach 20 minutes to rivermouth (estuary).

 Informations supplémentaires

Drake's is a spot which breaks into the Drake's Estero outflow, forming unreal sandbars on both sides of the egress (especially on the south side!) There are a few problems, though... This spot has a heavy great white shark population, and people have spotted huge great whites feeding in packs (on dead whales, etc.) just offshore! You really should only surf here only when the tide is coming up, because when it is dropping the sharks feed at the estuary outflow (where the line-up is). Also, at dropping tides the estuary flows like a fats-moving river, and you wouldn't want to get sucked too far out- possibly to your death either by drowning or getting eaten by a great white shark! (And I am entirely serious!)

Atmosphère

What makes this spot magic is the fact that the predominant N-NW winds blow straight offshore here- and often with force! And teh water is often crystal clear and windex-blue! It picks up south swells like a magnet, and big winter and spring surf can wrap in here too! Usually empty, but when it's really firing you might find some 'Pt. Reye's Station locals' out- and while it's good to have company out here, don't do anything to intimidate poeple in the line-up. Have a positive attitude and surf well and all will be well. Most of the time you will have to surf alone! South side of outflow actually has best sandbar- an epic left. But this means you would either have to hike 3 hours up from Limantaur from the south, or paddle across the estuary- a hariy proposition (and never attempt this at a dropping tide! You might not make it accross!) Wave can be world-class when it's on- a crystal-blue, offshore freight-training barrel that wraps all the way into the estuary. But must be big and the sandbars must be right!

Général

You will see bigger waves breaking on sandbars way offshore- but this is a death-wish (due to sharks and currents). Surf the estuary bars or the sometimes-not-closed-out beachbreak only, and keep your eyes peeled for sharks!
