Delaware Bay Point Surf Photo: 'Delaware Bay from Pepin Island' by Rob Davies

An unusual view of the bar at Delaware Bay insofar as Pepin Island is privately owned but was open for a day to raise funds for the Hira volunteer fire service. A strong onshore NW wind starts to build a swell but it will be a couple more hours before it is big enough to be surfable here.
