I wonder also what the temp is sparx. The US east coast beachs and sea are low to high 70's by August. The US west coast is famed for surfers but the truth is that the west coast waters are colder then the east. San Franscisco bay is about 60F in summer and 55 in winter. The Pacific is deep right off the beach. On the east coast the water is shallow (under really 150 feet out to over 100 mles then it goes deep and the Gulf Stream keeps warm water moving. As far as waves go I think its about the same. hawii is where the huge surf is in the USA and it can be huge to the unreal side in some places there.
