Surf Magazine and Yardbarker put out one joint feature on June 28, 2026. They named seven coastal towns as top summer getaways. Those spots have warm water, steady swell and one local vibe. The list is meant to help travelers pick a beach.
On the same day NBC 7 San Diego released an investigator alert. Police say thieves and fraudsters are going after surfers’ cars and gear. In Anchorage, the Daily News stated a man from the city died while surfing the Turnagain Arm bore tide. The loss shows how hard it is to rescue swimmers in fast‑moving tidal currents.
