Surf Break: Hope Beach

Name: Hope Beach
Type: beach
Reliability: inconsistent
Best Swell: S Offshore Wind: NNW

Hope Beach on the East Coast is a fairly exposed beach break that does not work very often. The best time of year for waves is autumn. Offshore winds are from the north northwest.

Surfing here means negotiating dangerous rips.
