SPOTLIGHT ON...
CASINO PIER - NEW JERSEY
by goingoffsurf.com

- PADDLE OUT
Best spot to paddle out is next to the pier, because the current is pushing out there.

BE AWARE OF THE DANGERS
Although the current next to the pier can help, it can also be your worst enemy. To far in and you'll get sucked right under the pier... scary - but everyone should experience it once.

LOCAL VIBE
Macho vibe. . Some think they belong to an imaginary surf hierarchy. Plus, this is also where the Surfline cam is set-up, so even on small days everyone is there.

AVERAGE WAVE HEIGHT
Anywhere from 2' to double-overhead. Everyday is different and I never surfed the same swell twice in NJ.

BEST SEASON
Wintertime when you get ice cream headaches with every duck dive.

WHY WE LOVE CASINO PIER
I love the South side of the Pier on NE swells. Bowling lefts all day long!
Its NJ. . .we're all about sand-bar closeouts. Paddle in, charge hard and take a beating!
