The wave, estimated to be over 10 feet high, came ashore unexpectedly, sending a cascade of water over the pier and onto the beach. Surfers quickly paddled out into the break, eager to take advantage of the rare opportunity. “It was incredible,” said local surfer Jake Johnson. “I’ve never seen a wave like that at Santa Monica before. It was a dream come true.” The wave drew dozens of surfers to the beach, who spent hours riding the massive swell. Some surfers were even able to execute aerial maneuvers, much to the delight of spectators on the beach. “This is the best day of surfing I’ve had in my life,” said Emily Carter, a visitor from San Diego. “I never thought I’d get to surf a wave like this at Santa Monica.” According to local meteorologists, the giant wave was likely caused by a combination of factors, including a strong storm system in the Pacific Ocean and a high tide that pushed the waves further up onto the beach. “This kind of wave is very rare at Santa Monica,” said Mark Bove, a spokesperson for the National Weather Service. “It’s a combination of perfect conditions that came together to create an unforgettable experience for surfers.” The wave has left surfers in Santa Monica buzzing with excitement, and many are hoping that the conditions will continue to cooperate in the coming days. For now, the pier and the beach remain a hotspot for surfers of all levels, eager to catch a piece of the action.
