DESCRIPTION: 

Let's go surfin' now
Everybody's learnin' how
Come on and safari with me

Very rare California Surf Map circa late 1960's to early 1970's. Apparently produced to support a sales promotion. The map at center is surrounded by photo illustrations of popular California surfing locations. Each location contains a brief description of when to expect the best surfing conditions. For example:
"MISSION BEACH Typical beach surf winter and summer. Less crowded than Pacific Beach. Takes all swells with south and west swells preferred. 2 - 6 feet ht."

Surfing locations identified on the map include, from bottom right moving clockwise:
  • Mission Beach
  • Pacific Beach
  • Leucadia
  • Oceanside
  • San Clemente
  • . . .
  • Manhattan Beach
  • Malibu
  • Ventura
  • Staley's
  • Rincon
Only one copy was found online, at the archive for surfingheritage.org (1).
