• How Many of California's Most Beautiful Coastal Towns Have You Visited? (theboutiqueadventurer.com) — Half Moon Bay earns a featured spot on a list of California's most beautiful coastal towns, highlighted for its wide beaches, dramatic cliffs, cozy downtown, and famous Mavericks surf break. The guide encourages travelers to explore Pillar Point Harbor, stroll local beaches, and time a visit for the Pumpkin Festival, alongside stops in other scenic seaside communities across the state.
• How Monster Waves Like Jaws, Nazaré and Maverick's Are Actually Made (thestate.com) — Half Moon Bay's Maverick's break gets a shout-out as a prime example of how underwater canyons and powerful Pacific storms combine to create truly massive surf. The piece explains in clear terms how wind, swell period, and seafloor shape work together to turn offshore energy into the kind of towering waves that occasionally deliver unforgettable, XXL sessions just off the local coast.
