I suppose if you wanted to sneak to the ocean on foot somewhere you might get away with that but basically there are NO Beaches people are basically allowed on Still in Santa Cruz or Monterey Counties. I saw one picture of a wave at Mavericks and then I looked at the surfer and calculated by his size that the wave likely was 70 feet high he was surfing. However, most beaches surf it says is around 35 feet on top of any high Tides and another foot and a half from the Kelvin wave that has raised the whole ocean from South America UP to Seattle and possibly to Vancouver and Alaska too. So, for anyone living too near the ocean right now it is likely a disaster for them from the tip of South America up to Seattle or further north (if they live on the Pacific Ocean anywhere on the West Coast of the U.S. , Canada and South America and Mexico.
