📍 Local Knowledge
5th Street in New Jersey is a reliable beach/jetty break that works best in winter, with November offering the most consistent clean waves. It receives a mix of groundswells and windswells, with the optimal swell direction from the northeast. The best wind direction is from the northwest, creating ideal conditions when combined with a southeast swell. Waves peel left over the beach break and work at all tide stages. The spot can get crowded when the surf is up, and hazards include rips and pipes.
