Spot guide
Crane Beach is an ENE-facing beach break in Ipswich, Massachusetts, United States. It picks up swell from ENE to E, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 94% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the WSW: light winds or WSW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while ENE onshores chop it up.
