Spot guide

Cressy Beach is an ESE-facing beach break in Gloucester, Massachusetts, United States. It picks up swell from ENE to SE, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 72% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the WNW: light winds or WNW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while ESE onshores chop it up.
