Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

Askins Creek in Avon, Hatteras Island, is a quiet and less-crowded beach-break that relies on shifting sandbars to produce workable peaks. It performs best in fall, especially October, when hurricane-season groundswells and nor’easters generate consistent northeast and southeast swells, often cleaned up by offshore or cross-offshore winds from the west. Surf tends to be most manageable at low to mid tide, offering peaky lefts and rights that can range from fun waist-high sessions to powerful overhead sets depending on storm activity.

Best Swell Direction: E

Bottom Type: Sand
