Oh I'm sorry Kory green if Crystal cove isn't a better spot, get over it! - Your anonymous anger means nothing to me, so go join up with Poopface's posse, since obviously you need a little gay icon for your lame spots!

poor info - Photos are not of Crystal cove. Description of waves and conditions are incorrect. The breaks in this area are considered local breaks. Sometimes there are fun sessions but the waves are short and sketchy at best 99% of the time. Crystal cove is not known as a surfing break. There is a strong local crowd that have been there in this area for years and use this area to get away from the Newport crowds. It is not advisable to bring people in with you. Be considerate. Leave the attitude behind. Enjoy the park.
