Description

The Hook - Sharks Cove The Hook features fast, hollow right-hand waves breaking over flat rocks and sand, making it a prime spot for experienced surfers. The wave works best at low and mid tide with rising and falling tides, and is known for its localized crowd. Access is straightforward from the 41st street parking lot, but parking can be challenging. Located away from the main area of Pleasure Point, The Hook can deliver fun sessions, especially during optimal swell conditions. However, it tends to be inconsistent and is not recommended for beginners due to aggressive localism. Surfers should be cautious of sharp rocks and kelp in the water. While the spot can get ultra crowded on weekends, it remains a classic destination for those seeking thrilling rides. Be prepared for potential hazards, including pollution and local surfers who fiercely protect their turf.
