Wallops Beach

Wallops Beach is an SE-facing beach break in Accomack County, Virginia, United States. It picks up swell from ENE to S, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 55% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NW: light winds or NW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SE onshores chop it up.
