Additional Information
This spot is like hell to park and everywhere else besides this spot is crowded.
Atmosphere
This spot is super fun. About every day the waves are 3-4 feet. Its perfect for airs, and on the big days its a heavey barrel. Dont come here if you're not expierenced because if you eat it your hitting the pipes. Also this spot is mostly a bodyboarders spot because it's only open for surfers after 5 in the summer. Its definatelty the best spot in all new jersey

Don't go after a storm - The EPA regularly closes this beach because of contamination from run off from a nasty lake that is on the other end of the pipe.
