Lavallette in New Jersey is an exposed beach/Jetty break that has quite reliable surf and can work at any time of the year. Works best in offshore winds from the west. Most of the surf here comes from groundswells and the ideal swell direction is from the east. Waves at the beach break both left and right. Sometimes crowded. Take care of rips and rocks.
