Probably the most powerful beachbreak in northern Massachusetts, Long Beach consistently attracts the maximum available swell and magnifies it onto the low tide sandbanks. The southern corner has a hollow left breaking into the rocks, which is less likely to close-out than the rest of the beach.
The most crowded spot in the Cape Anne area, which isn?t saying much. Parking is sketchy.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
