Matunuck Beach

Matunuck Beach is an SSE-facing reef break in South Kingstown, Rhode Island, United States. It picks up swell from E to S and SSW to SW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 58% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NNW: light winds or NNW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SSE onshores chop it up.
