Name: North End
Type: beach
Reliability: inconsistent
Best Swell: E Offshore Wind: SW

North End in Virginia is an exposed beach break that has inconsistent surf with no particular seasonal pattern. Offshore winds are from the southwest. Most of the surf here comes from groundswells and the ideal swell direction is from the east. The beach break provides left and right handers. Best around low tide. Even when there are waves, it's not likley to be crowded. Surfing here means negotiating dangerous rips.
