One of the few places in Massachusetts Bay that is offshore in a NE wind. Big NE to E swell will wrap around a jetty giving mainly lefts and peaks further down the beach at mid tides. Sloppy shoulders and lots of cutbacks.
Moderate to low consistency means sometimes crowded conditions. Estuary water flows out here into the surf which can get rippy.

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.
