📍 Local Knowledge
Fort Fisher in North Carolina is a fairly exposed beach and reef break with inconsistent surf and no clear seasonal pattern. It mainly receives groundswells, with the ideal swell direction from the northeast and offshore winds from the west. The break favors lefts and works best around low tide. Conditions are optimal when northeast swells combine with west winds. Winter is the most reliable season for clean waves, with January offering the best chances. The spot is often crowded, and hazards include rips, rocks, and sharks.
