Current Surf Conditions

Last updated: May 26, 2026 at 4:50 PM EDT

Wooden Pier is seeing very good swell with solid energy coming from the ESE, giving plenty of push for strong sets. The wind is light and sideshore from the east, improving conditions as the tide rises around mid-level height. Although the tide quality score is poor, the swell and wind combo keeps things fun, especially with the long swell interval adding power. Expect a clean but slightly mixed surf with steady waves despite the chance of showers.
