Cherry Grove Pier surfspot characteristics
More about Cherry Grove Pier surfspot
General: North Myrtle Beach is more about small towns with stretches of similar sandbars than specific breaks. The farthest north you can get, Cherry Grove is a quiet little town near the state line, and has shifting sandbars at the end of every block. It gets better south-swell energy than most of the Myrtle Beach area, and can be counted on for cleaner conditions when NE winds scour the coast, as well. Tides: mid to high Size: waist-overhead high Wind: N, NW - NE is side offshore Swell: S, SE Bottom: sand Paddling: Hard NE and SW winds can produce strong currents, but generally pretty mellow. Spot Rating: Scattered peaks, ideal for all types surfers most days.

Miscellaneous sea creatures in the water, and cranky fishermen on the pier. A world-record tiger shark was caught at Cherry Grove long ago - something to consider.
