7th Street Surf Report & Forecast

Local Knowledge

7th Street in New Jersey is a moderately exposed beach and reef break with fairly consistent surf, particularly favored during winter months. The spot works best with northwest offshore winds and groundswells, with the ideal swell direction coming from the southeast. While it can get crowded when conditions are favorable, hazards such as man-made obstacles (e.g., buoys) and pollution can pose risks. The most optimal conditions occur when a southeast swell combines with northwest offshore winds. For clean, rideable waves, the best conditions are typically seen in the summer, especially in September.
