Surf Bethany Hollywood St

Bethany Hollywood St - Bethany Beach, Delaware This surf spot features right-breaking waves over a sandy bottom mixed with rock, ideal for hollow conditions. Located in a small beach town north of Ocean City, it offers instant access and works best at mid tide during rising conditions with swells from the south and southeast. Bethany is renowned for its mile-long boardwalk and old beach groins, which create favorable sandbars for wave action. The spot is favored by local surfers, particularly in the fall and winter months when swells are more consistent. Summer often brings calmer conditions and some restrictions on surfing. Be mindful of localism and potential hazards like rocks. Public parking is paid from May 15 to September 15, but free outside these dates. The friendly local vibe makes it a great place to enjoy mellow surf days, especially during tropical cyclones or nor’easters that enhance wave quality.
