Surfability Score™ Updated Hourly •
Duck Pier has some solid energy rolling in from the northeast but it’s totally blown out by strong north winds slamming the lineup. The tide is rising near low to mid-level, keeping the surf manageable but not ideal for clean waves. With waves oversized yet still surfable and period shaping up, there’s some potential here if the wind backs off. Right now though, it’s a junky mess and a tough paddle out.
