It's difficult to put feelings into words, but at the same time, I could talk forever about what makes this place so special. And to think I've only seen a fraction of this place excites me for future visits. Everyone should experience this iconic American landmark at least once in their life.

A couple swells within a few days lit up San Diego in early December 2015. Hopefully signs of what El Niño will bring the rest of the winter. All footage is from December 5-8, 2015. Be on the lookout for more Swell Check episodes.

Cool to see this guy out there riding waves all the way into the beach at 77 years old. What a legend in the surf world! Music: Chromatics - Hands in the Dark
