According to the North County Times State Lifeguards recused a woman surfer from the rocks on South Ponto Beach.
The incident was reported at 3 p.m., as the woman and a man she was surfing with were attempting to return to the south side of the shore, which required moving against the current, authorities said. A wave then crashed into the woman, knocking her into jagged rocks, state lifeguard supervisor Brian Ketterer said.
She reportedly had lacerations on about 70 percent of her body and was taken to Scripps Encinitas Hospital.
