Holyoke surfspot characteristics
More about Holyoke surfspot
General: Located in Beach Haven, Holyoke is a winding left that breaks off a long jetty. On a big nor'easter, it's a simple paddle around the jetty followed by lined-up lefts that roll forever. A smaller left and right peel off down the beach and are actually better when it's small. The sandbar is always shifting so you really never known what you're going to get. Tides: Any tide can work, depends on the sandbar and swell Size: Waist high-2X overhead Wind: NW Swell: ENE, E, ESE, SE Bottom: Sand Paddling: Depends on the swell and sandbar - ranges from easy in summer to very hard in winter. Spot Rating: On the right swell, super fun spot.
Intermediate to advanced
Some street parking around so mostly easy.
September through March
Crowd Factor: Crowded in the summer/fall, not bad otherwise. Local Vibe: Show respect and you'll be good, can be heavy on good days.
Pretty clean overall.
Groins, crowds, incompetent surfers and tourists (in summer).
