The joy of the ride and the peace of mind waves bring have both locals and visitors flocking to surf in Seaside Heights.

While many surfers venture into the water year round, the surfing scene here really begins to ramp up in May when the weather gets warmer. If you look out on the ocean on any day from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day you will see many surfers in the water. The ocean around Casino Pier offers some of the longest tube rides in New Jersey.

On the south side, there’s an occasional right bowl that breaks in the middle of the beach. Just north of the famous Casino Pier, Hiering Avenue offers fun lefts and rights. Wide open to most any swell, it breaks with relative consistency.
