Stony Point is a popular surf spot known for its steep and powerful waves. Located on Lake Superior, it tends to attract a moderate number of surfers when the conditions are right. The area offers long rides, especially around the headland at Boulders, making it a decent option for those looking to catch some waves.

The best surf usually comes from an east swell, with the spot handling swell sizes of about 3 feet (0.9 meters). You'll find waves breaking over a rocky ledge, creating both left and right waves. For those who are more experienced, this spot is suitable for intermediate surfers. If you want the best conditions, aim for a northwest wind and try to surf at low, mid, or high tide. Keep an eye on the northeast and east swells to maximize your ride.

While you’re out there, do check out the eastern end and southern fringe of Superior, as well as the western base of the Keweenaw for other surfable areas. Stony Point is definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and looking to get on the water.
