Main Street Pier surf guide

Main Street Pier is a surf spot with a bit of history. It was pretty popular back in the โ€™60s and โ€™70s, but these days, the crowds have moved to other areas. It's got a unique feature with a chair lift along the pier, which is a nice touch, although it doesnโ€™t quite help when the waves get big.

When it comes to surfing, Main Street Pier works best with a northeast swell direction, but it can also handle swells coming from the north or south. It usually breaks well with swells around 2 feet (0.6 meters). The waves here can go left or right and break over sand, making it a decent spot for surfers. This place is beginner-friendly, which is a plus for those just starting out. If you're looking for the best conditions, aim for a southwest wind and try to catch it during low, mid, or high tide.

Summer can get pretty crowded here, especially with college crowds coming in. If you want to park on the beach during the summer, make sure to get there early to avoid pricey meter parking. Itโ€™s always good to keep in mind that this spot might not be as lively as it once was, but it still has its charm.
