I'm a very beginner surfer... takes me about 2 hrs, before i can catch my first wave...:) I usually go to cowell's beach in santa cruz since that's the only spot i know... but it's very crowded and the beach is very rocky... for someone like me, who crashes every 10 mins, it's probably not the best spot... I was wondering if you guys knew of any other spot that's ideal for a total beginner with few people, so i dont come in their way...:)
Thanks, Vijay.

Hi Vijay, Lots of good advice here already. I'd agree that cowells really isn't the best place to learn as a beginner. You really want someplace where you...
