Barnegat Light

Barnegat Light is an E-facing beach break in New Jersey, United States. It picks up swell from ENE to SSW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 42% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the W: light winds or W breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while E onshores chop it up.
