Surf Point Judith Lighthouse

Point Judith Lighthouse - Rhode Island Point Judith Lighthouse features a right-hand point break over a reef bottom, delivering fast, powerful, and fun waves. The spot is best surfed at mid tide during rising and falling tides, with optimal conditions from south to southeast swells and northwest to southwest winds. Access is straightforward, with a short hike from the parking lot. The south side of Point Judith offers a less crowded alternative, making it appealing for surfers seeking solitude. While the same parking is available, caution is advised due to a protruding steel bar near a rock in the water. The south side can produce different wave conditions, particularly on larger swells, but it remains a dangerous area. Surfers should be aware of localism, rips, and undertow, and should avoid the "Death Zone" near the point. Overall, Point Judith Lighthouse is a prime east coast surf destination, especially when conditions align.
