Surfer and Bodyboarder Evan McMillen(21) Dies at Salt Creek (Jan'23)

McMillen, a strong surfer and standout bodyboarder, who tragically died recently while surfing Salt Creek, the town’s crown jewel. The nature of McMillen’s accident isn’t entirely clear. He was surfing last Sunday when witnesses walking along the beach noticed a surfboard that wasn’t moving in the whitewater. That’s when they say they saw McMillen facedown in the water, according to a report from the Dana Point Times. The couple that first saw McMillen apparently pulled him out of the water, saw that he was bleeding from the back of his head and started CPR. It’s not clear whether McMillen hit his head on the board or the sand.
