Seabrook Beach surf guide
Surf: Beachbreak peaks that work on all swell directions. Handles up to double overhead, but you’ll have trouble getting out the back. Constantly changing sandbars can shape powerful hollow waves or slow mushy shoulders, plus the position of tide is crucial to this tricky spot.
Environment: No access problems in winter, but in summer it can be near impossible to park in the area. Posted signs say no surfing. No hazards or crowds.
