Description
Ocean Lakes - North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
This beach break features left-hand waves over a sandy bottom mixed with rocks, offering ordinary to fun power. The spot is accessible via a short walk (5-15 minutes) from the campground, with public access available. Ideal conditions occur during mid to high tide with rising and falling tides, complemented by east winds and swells from the south, southeast, and east.
Ocean Lakes is a hidden gem for surfers seeking a less crowded experience. The atmosphere is relaxed, allowing for uninterrupted sessions, especially during weekdays. While the weekends may attract a few surfers, the overall vibe remains tranquil. Be mindful of potential dangers such as rips, undertow, and localism. This spot is perfect for those looking to enjoy a private surf day away from the busier beaches, making it a worthwhile destination for both beginners and seasoned surfers alike.
