Probably the best break in Myrtle Beach, just out front of the Dunes Country Club. The swash here creates a definite sandbar, which breaks both ways into the rivermouth, giving longer rights on a SE swell. A hollow, top-to-bottom punchy wave.
Consistent and uncrowded with surfers but packed with fish that bite. Exclusive residential streets with no legal parking means a one mile hike in. Stormwater and estuary runoff can affect water quality.

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.
