Surfing in Asbury Park
Asbury Park surfing follows the shore's rhythm: mushy but friendly summer waves for learning, then real swell when fall hurricanes spin up offshore while the water is still warm. 7th Avenue Beach is the local break to know — and in summer, surfing is limited to designated beaches during lifeguard hours, so check the flags.
Best Time for Surfing
Best during summer months (June-August), though spring and fall also offer good conditions

Surfing Tips for Asbury Park
- First-timers should book a lesson — the shore's beach breaks shift with every storm and locals know where the sandbars are that week.
- Summer surfing is restricted to designated beaches during lifeguard hours; check the town's posted surfing flags.
- September and October bring the best waves of the year while the water is still in the 60s and 70s.
