Description

Little River - Clam Beach Little River features a beach break with both right and left waves over a sandy bottom. This spot is best surfed during high tide, particularly when small and clean swells are present. The ideal wind direction is from the east, and it remains uncrowded throughout the week and on weekends. Located along the highway, Little River State Beach offers a laid-back atmosphere with quirky sandbars. It’s a hidden gem that attracts fewer surfers, making it perfect for those seeking a mellow vibe. While the surf can be enjoyable, surfers should be cautious of the area's reputation for unpredictable breaks and occasional shark sightings. The nearby free camping option adds to its appeal for those wanting to extend their stay. Overall, this spot is ideal for relaxed sessions when conditions align, providing a unique surfing experience away from the busier beaches.
