Heh. This is the first time I've heard of anyone coming up to RI for a surf trip.

I'm actually curious to see what you come up with. If you're driving, I'd maybe try Indian River Inlet or even OCMD. If flying, Florida isn't a bad call; DPSUP and Betty always seem to be getting some down there.

 

^^^ (metards post) soulsurfer and I were about to drive 16 hours to get them waves today, but he bailed on me. Just look at this:



I think that's from somewhere in that vicinity. I've never been, but that photo is encouraging.

Not sure when you are planning to go but I assume this upcoming fed holiday. I'm trying to take a mini trip myself. Preferably somewhere warm. Sometimes, if you look in advance, tickets to Cali can be relatively inexpensive. I've gotten round trip flights for pretty cheap. Considering an extended weekend stay there sometime soon.

 

Take a look at the outer beaches of Cape Cod. Lots of b and b's, great eats, bars, no aquarium but lots of Atlantic Ocean. The beaches can be desolate with not many surfers but not lacking in quality breaks. Takes a little bravado to paddle 100 yards through the trough to get out but there are countless unridden waves if that's what you seek.
I recommend taking a surf buddy and your girls of course, but its a must for any ECer, or at least to check it off the bucket list of spots to go.

Or you can go to NH and find Barry Cuda

 

I've been up to Cape Cod twice and really enjoyed it. That's a great idea for a surf trip, provided you're ok with the cold. Both times I went up there I had the entire beach to myself. And this is at a named, popular spot, not some secret spot.

Lots of seals.

Both times the surf was head high or so. I imagine it is pretty intense once it gets overhead there.

 

Cool. I'm curious to see where you end up going. I almost headed down to LI over Xmas but ended up driving up to Cape Cod. Both times I hit a spot just north of Coast Guard beach, N-something Light. Nobody at all out there, but even if there was, there's plenty of beach to spread out.

Not sure where you stay up there, but I'm sure Google will sort that out.

 

Bassmon, if you end up there; stay in Orleans, close access to the outer beach of Nauset

 

Mon, the drive is quick from where you at, 3-5 hrs tops, depending on Hartford traffic. That time of year you will have predominate winds from the southerly direction and guaranteed fog depending on the tide and wind direction.
If you get knocked out of surf, it's no great loss because you will still have a great weekend that's close to home.

 

C'mon down dude. I actually just got back from surfing with Yankee and his GF who decided to come down for the weekend. I would be glad help you score if there are waves to be found.

 

If you've never been east go to Mtk... if you're just gonna do fri to mon that would be my suggestion... I go all the time when I get a couple of feee days.
No sense spending have the weekend driving when you have an awesome place you've never surfed right in your backyard.

 

I'm gonna come thru there soon dp. When I do I'm gonna hit you up so you can show me the goods. Where abouts are you located down there?
