Goosewing Beach surf guide

Goosewing Beach is a popular surf spot located in the Little Compton area. It's one of the few places with easy access for surfers in this region. The beach features a mix of beach, reef, and pointbreaks all within a large bay, making it a decent option for catching some waves. The area tends to have lower crowds, which can be a plus for surfers looking to enjoy their session without too much hustle.

The surf here can handle swell sizes from around 2ft (0.6m) and can go up to about 10ft (3m). The optimal swell direction is from the South, but it also works with Southeast and Southwest swells. You can find both left and right waves breaking over boulders, especially near a little creek runoff. This spot is generally better suited for intermediate surfers due to the wave types and conditions, so keep that in mind when planning your session. The best winds come from the North, and it can be surfed at low, mid, or high tide.

In winter, access to Goosewing Beach is free, but during the summer months, you’ll need to pay to park. So, if you're aiming to hit the waves here, consider timing your visit to the winter months for the cost-effectiveness and fewer beachgoers. It’s a nice little spot to check out if you’re around, just be ready for currents and changing conditions.
