De Haven Creek

Located in Mendocino County, De Haven Creek is a beach break known for its fairly consistent waves, especially during summer. The best swell comes from the west-southwest, with offshore winds from the east creating favorable conditions. This spot produces both left and right-hand waves, working best around mid tide. Surfers should be cautious of rocks, sharks, rip currents, and localism when the surf is good and the lineup gets crowded.
