Santa Cruz has a true surf legend: Otter 841.
This fearless sea otter has become infamous for charging surfers, biting chunks out of boards, and stealing them at Steamer Lane. She’ll climb on, claim the board for up to 20 minutes, and sometimes even ride it back toward shore like she owns the break.
Officials say her behavior is rare and risky, especially because she shows almost no fear of humans. But in Santa Cruz, that hasn’t stopped people from turning her into a local legend.
If she shows up, authorities say: keep at least 50 feet away and get out of the water.
