I've noticed the same. Some other beachies in the area are working nicely also. I'm curious as to how spots at the aforementioned beach are breaking, haven't even tried getting down there post-Sandy.

stop naming spots holy **** i thought people should know this by ****ing now how old are you guys 12?

Forget RI. Come to Charleston, SC/Folly Beach. Then you can surf the Washout, 10th Block East, the Pier and if you don't mind the paddle, there's a sweet little break off the north end of the island outside the lighthouse - no one really goes there. What other spots can I name? There's a spot between the Pier and 3rd Block West as well as a spot at 5th/6th Block East. Then there's this other spot....

Yeah but if you surf the northeast and are unaware of 'Gansett town beach, 1st, or 2nd you are most likely suffering from some type of developmental disability.

It's only good once in a while, which is why it's not a crowded zoo like the more popular breaks. Not exactly a smart idea to bank on driving all the way from Providence when it's so hit and miss.

Also, that area close to atlantic ave got devastated by the hurricane and I know the entire area had no access for a long time because of all the carnage. Not sure if access has returned. Atlantic ave was under 6 feet of sand
