I used to surf alone in sharky waters around South Australia. I didn't intend it to be that way but I was living in a van for 12 months back in the 80's and camping in remote areas where nobody would be during the week. There were some eerie sessions with visits from seals, tuna schools, pilot whales and surfing dolphins...never saw whitey, but it certainly did my head in at times.

I surfed near the Redwood National Park a while back. I was out alone, not even anyone on the beach. It was glassy, shoulder to head high and throwing barrels off a consistent a frame bowl. I was getting stoked out of my gord, but I could not handle the feeling in my gut. So, I started paddling in after just 45min. There was a rip in a deep trench just before the shore pulling me back out where I saw a seal swimming right on the edge of the beach looking at me with these big scared eyes that said, "dude? do you seriously not see what's going on here?" I was really glad to get my feet back on the beach. The next day, standing on the beach I saw the silhouette of a big white through the back of a wave.

I had an minor incident in Australia with a shark, it was the middle of the day, perfect and sunny. Saw the big black fin from ages away cruising into shore with myself between it and the shoreline. Being young and inexperienced, I began panicking, paddling fast and frantic while other surfers stayed cool and quiet. The shark sank underwater heading into the shore towards me. I tried to paddle onto a wave that was full and even though I was positive the shark couldn’t make up that distance decided to tuck my legs up onto the board. Just at that moment a large deep black body went under me within in a split second and disappeared. When I got the shore the adrenaline was like nothing I had experienced. It took a few days before I could get back in the water.

That sounds pretty haunting !! I'd never surf where there's sharks. If i have to die of stokeness... so be it.

Lol, Steamer Lane is similar; it's the most heavily seal populated spot I've been at. Seals chill on the mini-gibraltar there just off the point where people jump into the water. Seals constantly play, swim, and pop up around you while you go for waves. And there's hella birds as well, dropping deuce bombs around you. The breaks of NorCal have some spooky spots indeed; spookiest place I ever surfed was 10 miles outside of Santa Cruz. Before I entered the water, saw an elephant seal corpse with the face eaten off. Got in the and the waves were terrible and a low hanging fog rolled in, to where I couldn't see 20 ft. in front of me; like surfing in a dream and the ghostly silhouettes of other surfers would materialize in and out of the haze. After an hour, noticed I was alone and saw the huge bulk of an elephant seal pass through an incoming wave in front of me. Took the next wave in, called it a day and went got some tacos. Last thing I'll say, from watching other shark attack stories, and listening to people talk about their encounters, is that it's more worrisome when you see Seals stay OUT of the water then if they get in. If you go into the water, and they don't go with you or they stay grouped up around the shore or on a sandbar, you know for sure there is a shark in the water, because they are trying to be where that shark isn't. The craziest attack that happened was up near Mavericks and some dude was doing research with a friend for a documentary. Before he got in the water, he noticed all the seals were grouped on one side of the beach, staying out of the shallows. He and his friend got in the water, the seals didn't and when he he was 100 yards offshore, a great white torpedoed his board from the bottom and launched him into the air. He somehow survived. Either way, it's always risk surfing up here, but just my two cents. If you've read this far, thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Yeah Santa Cruz has lots of seals and sharks around, but it just doesn't compare to far northern California. There is so many miles of empty coastline and an abundant seal and shark population. Much of the coastline that far north is very steep drop offs, due to the mountains more or less running into the sea. Just prime shark habitat... There isn't a huge population of humans up that far north in comparison to somewhere like santa cruz and even less surfers. Everyone who surfs regularly this far north in California knows someone thats had a shark encounter or attack, whether directly or friend of a friend situation. Theres no doubt in my mind that if you transplanted the surfer population from places like Santa Cruz or other surf communities further south and put them in the miles and miles of coastline up north, there would be more attacks than anywhere else. There's just a small but vibrant surf community up there and the majority restrict themselves to a couple of spots.

This is my neck of the woods, but I'm originally from the north east, grew up surfing similar spots to where you surf when at home and it's a major trip when you paddle out in Far Northern California and Oregon. It's so wild and the feeling is like no other. Not only are the waves, tree, rocks, and cliffs in many areas big, but the sea life is massive too. There's no denying the feeling of an attack looming at any moment, although you get use to it eventually, there is still always that feeling and thought in the back of your mind. The coastal fog, mild temperatures and water color doesn't help in making you feel any safer. Although the area is definitely magical in its own right. With that said, it's beautiful, uncrowded and pretty much endless potential if you want to explore. From sandbars, to harbor entrances, to empty rock points and shallow reef and slabs, theres a lot of untapped waves in the area. Many days of the year the surf over 10-15 feet, although not always the best conditions. Windless mornings are common, but also often comes with dense fog, which doesnt help the eerie feeling. Other than a couple popular spots, nearly every break is empty, which is wonderful in this day and age , but no denying its a comfortable feeling have some guys next to you in such a a wild area. I wish you were here with more swell in the water and had some locals take you to a good spot or even better do some step offs or tow- ins. You would have been stoked for sure. Regardless, I'm stoked to see you in the area enjoying yourself.

Usually when I get that weird feeling there would always be a shark close by wether I'm surfing or freediving, I think it's from the sharks sonar electrical pulses they use to detect prey😬🤷‍♂️ While surfing a secret spot on Oahu my Spidey senses kicked in while I was paddling back out to the line up I had that "weird" feeling and sure enough looked directly below me and there's a full grown gray reef shark swimming in the same direction matching my speed he looked like he was in hunt mode from the way the pectoral fins looked and if you're wondering how I know, it's because I stuck my head underwater and looked because I feel more comfortable seeing how the shark is reacting so I could know what I need to do to get out of that situation. Luckily for me right at that moment a wave came and I flipped around at the last second and caught it straight in. I told the life guard about the shark and I was kinda shocked at his reply, he told me "what do you want me to do about it?".. I didn't want to tell him how do his job because I respect the Hawaii lifeguards and lifeguards in general for what they do!🙏 But that guy working the tower that day could've atleast get on the bull horn and or cruise out to the line up with the jetskis to give warning to all the people surfing that day🤷‍♂️ the dream continues!✌🏼🤙🏼

But they will scare off if you threaten (move in their direction) them. Like you were saying, it’s good to be able to look into the water and see how they’re behaving. Still freaks me out tho.

Lol I live there in crescent city and see your sticker on the sign everytime I drive by. Great places to surf/ south beach crescent city California and brookings jetty.

Yes! Even more NorCal SoOr content! Love it Ben and crew! I watched For the Dream last night and loved it! Bout to watch it again and make sure to give it a 5 star review.

Surfed Salmon Creek in the early 90s, ended up 200 yards from shore with no one out but me.. Sketchy to this day when I think about it.

Looking cold up there.
