King Tide Waves Crash Over Pacifica Pier & Chit Chat Cafe, December 2020

These are highlights of the incredible king tide waves at high tide on December 14th, 2020. This was the first time in four years of filming the waves that they crashed completely over the cafe. Tragically, this King Tide caused multiple tragedies. Stay safe and never turn your back on the ocean, especially when the waves are this big. Maverick's was also going off this day.

The restrooms at the Chitchat have never been cleaner.

I first learned to surf there at 12 years old in 1962. EVERY wave looked that big back then !

Why is the guy trying to stand up the Barricades - Can’t he see what’s happening??? LMAO

[@surfstarcc1]

You know what would help the situation, putting up those three small barricades.... 🤣🤣

I love Pacifica. Too bad it’s so darn expensive to live there. Even rent is high. It’s pretty. And Mori Pt is so beautiful. I hiked it for the very first time this weekend. I visited Pacifica so many times and I never knew Mori was even there 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@CalifKid730]

Yep. Pretty expensive now to live in Pacifica. Even in Westview.

This part of land was not meant to be developed. The sea is reclaiming its territory and it will continue to do so as governed by God. What God has ordained cannot be stopped! The sea is living its purpose as ordained by God.
