47th Street surf guide

47th Street is a popular surf spot located along the coastline, known for its laid-back vibe and accessibility. This place attracts surfers of various skill levels, making it a favorable option for those looking to catch some waves. The area features a sandy bottom, which is a plus for surfers who prefer a safer landing when wiping out.

The surf here works best with a northeast swell, but you can also have some fun when the swell comes from the south. It can handle swell sizes starting from around 2 feet (0.6 meters), making it suitable for intermediate surfers who want to improve their skills. Waves typically break to the left, and the best conditions are usually found at low to mid tide, though you can still ride some decent waves at high tide. For optimal performance, a west wind is preferable.

While the spot has seen some changes over time, like the jetty being buried under migrating sand, it still offers some triangulation. So, if you're looking for a spot that can provide a mix of wave sizes and directions, 47th Street might just be worth checking out. Just remember to keep an eye on the conditions before heading out.
