Cahoon Hollow Beach

📍 Local Knowledge

Cahoon Hollow Beach in Wellfleet, Cape Cod, is an exposed beach break known for its consistent surf, especially during the fall hurricane season and winter nor’easters. It works best on east to northeast swells with offshore winds from the west or northwest, and mid tide on a rising tide tends to deliver the best shape. The waves can range from playful, rolling peaks to heavy, fast-breaking sections, making it popular with both intermediate and advanced surfers. The dramatic bluff backdrop adds to its appeal, though strong currents and shorebreak can be a factor on bigger days.
