We spent some time today at Tide Park beach – part of the larger Solana Beach area to the north of the San Diego metro area. I even dipped my toes into the California surfer culture by going out on a standing-up paddle board for a bit, with some coaching from my brother. The surfing area by the beach is called ‘Table Tops’ because of a reef right there. Absolute beginners such as me were wise to steer completely clear of the surfers, of course.
