The Marconi Station area has good beachbreak peaks at the base of tall cliffs and dunes. Needs some NE or SE swell angle to provide the hollowest, gnarliest pits on the Cape. Will accept SW winds but not high tide. From here to Nausett Beach has the potential to handle triple overhead on a sandbar, way out from the usual low tide break.
No paddle-out channels and strong currents at this rarely crowded open stretch. Cape Cod National Seashore area where the first transatlantic radio transmission was made, hence the name. Fee-to-pay parking and all facilities.

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.
