Swami's, Surfing spot in Encinitas, California, US.
The right-hand point break at Swami's Beach features consistent waves that break over a reef formation near steep coastal cliffs.
Since the 1960s, Swami's has attracted surfers from across California, becoming a central location for San Diego County's surfing development.
The Swami's Surfing Association, formed in 1964, organizes community events and supports environmental protection initiatives for the beach area.
The beach provides amenities including restrooms, water fountains, benches, and a parking lot, with lifeguard services during summer months.
The name originates from the Self-Realization Fellowship monastery overlooking the reef, established by Paramahansa Yogananda in 1937.
