Naval Jetties Surf Report & Forecast

Local Knowledge

Naval Jetties in Delaware is an exposed beach and groyne break that offers quite reliable surf and performs best during the summer months. It works optimally when a south-southeast swell meets offshore winds from the west, producing predominantly right-breaking waves. The spot handles both windswells and groundswells equally well and tends to offer its best surf around low tide. Despite its quality, Naval Jetties remains relatively uncrowded—even on good days—making it a great option for surfers seeking less crowded conditions. However, surfers should watch out for hazards like submerged tree stumps. The most consistent clean waves typically occur in July.
