At the south end of Seaside, a cobble point under Tillamook Head peels lefts along the headland while sandbars to the north throw hollow peaks on NW swells. A permanent current runs back out to the peak. Surf-Forecast and Wannasurf both warn of rocks and locals. Summer is mostly flat; winter NW swells with E wind are the days.
