WE’RE GOING CAMPING AT THE BEACH.
EAST COAST CAMPOUT IS FULL – email j.galura@christiansurfers.com to be added to waitlist.
Can you think of anything better than a surf trip? How about a surf trip where you wake up right next to the waves, still smelling like last night’s bonfire? You know, with nothing else planned but to surf 3 sessions that day and eat too many hot dogs. Pretty cool right?
Yeah, we thought so too.

Four other cars will leave in the afternoon for anyone who has work/school on Friday.
Punta Cabras is about three miles from a small fishing village and about 15 miles from the main highway. The area is safe, and we have had good experiences with past trips. There will be a certified First Aid and CPR responder on the trip. Please make us aware of any medical conditions and be prepared with your own prescriptions and needed supplies.
We will tent camp on the bluff of the north side of Punta Cabras cove. There are no noise or fire regulations, nor established bathrooms, running water, electricity, or trash services. It’s full freedom-style camping. Come ready to rough it, and remember we are packing out everything we pack in!
Surf:
The waves are very consistent at Cabras, usually about two feet bigger than the surrounding coast. It is not a popular camp spot because there is a more popular right point about 10 miles north where there is also bluff camping. Cabras is a beach break that has multiple sections that caters to all levels of surfing.
