El Porto Beach is a favorite among South Bay surfers. With consistent swells coming from an underwater canyon, it boasts big waves, and perfect lefts and rights over sandbars that can reach double overhead sizes. The beach is protected by the state park system, and there are several amenities such as restrooms with showers, lifeguards on duty, and a wide variety of recreational activities like volleyball courts, roller skates, bicycles for rental, and even a snack bar. El Porto is also conveniently next to a Chevron oil refinery and a private corporate Electricity-producing facility for Edison. Come down to El Porto to surf, take the family on a picnic or just soak up some rays and make great memories!
