The Wedge in Allenhurst is a popular surf spot located along the coast, known for its unique wave conditions. It's nestled between Long Branch and Loch Arbour, offering a mix of beach vibes and suburban charm. The area around The Wedge can get pretty crowded, so if you're looking for some space, you might want to plan your visit accordingly.

This spot works best on a Northeast swell and can handle swell sizes of around 2ft (0.6m). The waves here break over sand, mainly offering lefts, but you can catch some rights too. It’s ideal for intermediate surfers, especially during low to mid tide when the waves can get steeper and bowly. If you’re checking the wind, a west wind is preferable to get the best conditions out there.

Parking can be a challenge, as there isn’t any directly at the beach. The main street is about half a mile (0.8km) away and could be your best bet for finding a spot. Be prepared for some tight take-off zones, as this area is often busy with other surfers. The atmosphere in the summer can feel a bit like a private swim club, so keep that in mind when planning your session at The Wedge.
