Rhode Island Surf

Hey bro...I just did an entire write up on RI surf. Nowhere on the ec is consistent. I personally wouldn't move and throw your whole life in disarray JUST for surf anywhere on the ec. It's simply not consistent enough. Probaly better to move west if possible. If not possible, consider there's descent waves 4 times per month on average. (once this entire month so far, but that's WAY below normal even for july. Crazy flat spell for may)

I will admit though if you're in sw ct it will be a pain getting to the beach. You're landlocked. It would be better to get close to the beach to make your life easier if it's possible. Nj is superior to RI for bodyboarding, but you're a surfer(maybe a longboarder?) and in all honesty the difference between nj and ri isn't that big to make a difference when you've got other things in life to consider. Either place would work. That's a nightmare drive to from fairfield, ct to naragansett every time you want to surf!

 

Bor I wasn't even thinking. If you're in Fairfield, ct just hit up jones beach/rockaway ect. Much quicker! Just as consistent at RI

 

You are closer and easier access to Long Beach and Lido, on Long Island. Brad Pitted can tell you about the warm reception he and other beginners receive when they surf there. It's fun

 

stay in ct. if you want to move somewhere to surf move to san diego, ca

 

If you want to surf a lot with less people, move to the northwest.

 

It is not consistent. I moved up three years ago from NJ and boy do I miss the 23 foot Belmar daze.

Actually, I like surfing RI. But I wouldn't call it consistent.
