Pollock Beach surf guide

Pollock Beach is a surf spot known for its flexibility, working with various swell sizes and directions. It features sandy bottoms, making it generally beginner-friendly. The area can catch swells coming from the east and southwest, with the best surf occurring when the swell is around 3 feet (about 1 meter). While itโ€™s not the most famous spot, it does have its moments, especially at the right tides.

The waves at Pollock Beach can break both left and right, depending on the conditions. The best time to surf here is during low to mid to high tide, especially when the winds are coming from the southwest. On smaller swells, it can be rideable even in light onshores from the east, making it a good choice for beginners looking to practice their skills without facing more intense surf.

For those looking for a bit more action, check out Flat Rocks further south. It tends to offer some decent hollow right-hand waves at higher tides, which the local bodyboarders frequently enjoy. So, if you're up for a little exploration, it might be worth the trip for a different type of ride.
