The Cove surf guide

The Cove at Sandy Hook is a popular surf spot that attracts surfers looking for reliable waves. It's generally better than the 1st Parking Lot nearby, thanks to a natural point that helps shape the surf. The cove can handle swell from multiple directions, making it a decent option when other spots are flat. Keep in mind that it can get pretty crowded, especially during the summer, so plan accordingly if you’re looking for space to surf.

This spot works best with a southerly swell, often producing longer right-hand walls when the tide is low to mid. The waves here can range from 2ft (about 0.6 meters) up to larger swells. Surfers can expect a mix of both right and left breaks over sand, but the right waves are generally more consistent. It's an intermediate-friendly area, so if you're comfortable on your board, you should be good to go. The preferred wind direction is from the west, which helps shape those nice lines. Just make sure to hit it at low or mid tide for the best conditions!

The Cove also offers a pretty friendly vibe among surfers, but be ready to share the waves with others, especially on weekends. With no restrictions and all facilities available, it's a convenient spot to spend a day surfing. Just keep in mind that it can become quite packed during peak seasons, so an early arrival would be a good idea if you want to snag a solid session.
