Breachway is a surf spot that offers some interesting options for surfers, especially beginners. It features inlet jetties that can provide some decent waves, but keep in mind it won’t handle much size, especially during higher tides. The vibes here can vary, and it might get a little crowded at times, given its public beach access next to a private beach club. It's a good spot for a laid-back session, but manage your expectations about the crowd and wave quality.

The surf at Breachway works best with southeast and south swells, and it can handle sizes around 2ft (0.6 meters). The waves typically break over sand, offering both left and right options. Low to mid tides are preferable for the best rides here. If you're just starting out, you’ll find this spot manageable, but it’s good to stay aware of the conditions as they can change quickly. On days with a north wind, you’ll generally find cleaner waves, making for a more enjoyable session.

Access to the beach is free during the winter, which is a plus for those looking to catch some waves without shelling out any cash. Just remember that while the sandbars create longer rides compared to surrounding beach breaks, the surf can be inconsistent. Always keep an eye out for rip currents, as they can pop up along with the waves.
