D & W surf guide

D & W is a surf spot that catches both locals and visitors looking for a decent ride. It’s known for its right-hand waves that can have some serious punch, especially when the conditions align. Access is pretty straightforward with fee parking lots along the beach, making it easy to get in and out after your session.

The surf here can be steep and fast, particularly good when there's a larger NW swell, and it works best around mid tide. You can expect it to handle swell sizes starting from about 1 ft (0.3 meters) and generally favors a SW swell direction, although it can also work with S and NW swells. The waves break over sand, but don’t expect them to be super consistent; it can be sectiony at times. Ideal for intermediate surfers, this spot can produce some fun rides, particularly when the wind is coming from the NE.

While it might not be as solid as it was in the past, D & W still has its moments and can be worth a look if you find a clean swell running. It's good for shortboarders looking to snag some fun waves, so grab your board and see what’s happening out there.
