Brigantine Surf Spot Reviews
The jetty is the most popular spot to surf in Brigantine. Although
it is considered a summer spot there are some waves to be had during the
winter. This wave break within a quarter mile from the Brigantine Jetty. In
between this quarter mile there are three more pronounced sandbars where waves
break the best. The General rule of thumb when surfing at the Jetty is the
bigger the waves the farther away from the Jetty you’re going to be
surfing. Specifically the best break for
bigger waves would be right in the swinging beach and maybe 100 yards north of
that area. This spot often produces the best waves that the jetty can offer.
On rare occasions,
usually during the hurricane season the Jetty becomes washed out when there is
to big of a swell usually around 8ft swell and up. On this occasion it would be
best to check a number of spots which all offer pros and cons. One of My
favorite spots for this even would be the cove. This is a point break that goes
off during low tides. This wave is known for going over 100 yards and is only
known to the locals. The downside to surfing here is that there is really bad
current that has you constantly paddling up the beach towards the jetty.
Another spot,
which is highly respected almost more than all other spots in brigantine, would
the sea wall. This break breaks a few hundred yards offshore and can holds
swells 10ft plus. This wave is really fast moving and gives you long technically
demanding rides.
