SURF ATLAS/ HAWAII & USA
Steamer Lane
🇺🇸 Santa Cruz, USA
The heart of Santa Cruz surfing, a cluster of rock-reef right points below the clifftop lighthouse. 'The Lane' offers powerful, sectiony walls across several peaks in cold, kelpy water. A proud, historic and fiercely local Northern California institution.
