Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Ditch Plains in Long Island, NY, is an exposed reef break with fairly consistent surf year-round. It works best with offshore winds from the northwest and receives a mix of windswells and groundswells, with the ideal swell direction from the south-southeast. The break offers both left and right reef waves, and the best conditions occur when a south-southeast swell aligns with northwest winds. Winter, especially December, provides the most consistent clean waves. The spot is often crowded, and surfers should be cautious of rocks.
