Looks like we got a group this Friday for Corona Del Mar. If we are in before 10 pm we can launch at the baby beach in balboa . After 10 I think it's the coast guard sation . I'm not sure on that one. Who ever is in hit me up with a text or call. I'm in rancho cucamonga if anyone wants to carpool

I wish I could make it out Friday but I already have plans. I'm going to try and make it out there Tuesday and Wednesday next week. Good luck out there.

For those of you that have hooped the mouth of the harbor, how bad does the surf get. I know that "the wedge" is right there.

I'm down to go to long beach if that's where the bugs are. Could drift for butts and sharks while we wait right? I live in riverside

The wedge holds bugs too.cant park in the CG station after 10 pm but if you park in the street you are good to go.

Well long beach it is then ! I have not been there my self!

The one time I did long beach I drove down slept in my van got on the water before day break and when the sun came out it was red tide. Not enjoyable.

Out of curiosity where is the wedge? I've been out of Newport harbor a few times and still am not sure, is it one of the jetties that makes the mouth, or is it a structure? I guessed it was the south side jetty but would like to know for sure.

North side of the mouth on the other side. Last year people were surfing in the bay !People die on the wedge!

The wedge is the right side of the jetty known as Balboa Penninsula, excuse my spelling...from shore there is a wicked sudden drop shortly where the wave breaks boogie boarders love it.
