Level: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert

Type: Ocean

Water type: Chop, Small wave, Medium wave, Big wave

Water hazards: Swimmers, Currents, Rocks, Shells

Water quality: Cloudy

Infos: Ocean with waves. Large waves break off on outside sandbar created by the south jetty of the Barnegat Light Inlet. This break can be very treacherous at times so sail at your own risk. A smaller inside break also works protected by the south jetty for easier riding and beginners. Low tide is best for smaller shore break.

Beach type & size: Sand - Big

Infos: Enormous beach with plenty of area for launching and landing. The downside is the very long walk from the car to the beach (0.5-0.75 miles). There is a tractor taxi that runs around to help with the walk in June to August.

Identified hazards: None

Beachgoer: June, July, August

Weather specificities: From April/May to end of November you will see favorable conditions.

Wind type: Thermal, Frontal

Wind specificities: Famous New Jersey warm southerly thermal winds blow on average 2-3 times per weeks in May, June and July. Northeast, South and Southwest winds provide excellent ocean sailing. Best wind directions are N, NE, E, SE, S, SW. W works only if it is really windy.

Best months: April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November

Access description: by Car - Take the bridge onto Long Beach Island, then head North to Barnegat Light, turn right on 9th street. It is located on oceanside after a long walk to the beach.

Specific rules: Zones

Extra: Stay out of swimming areas.

Accommodations: Shop, Rescue, Toilet, Parking
