Ocean with waves. Large waves break off on outside sandbar created by the south jetty of the Barnegat Light Inlet. This break can be very treacherous at times so sail at your own risk. A smaller inside break also works protected by the south jetty for easier riding and beginners. Low tide is best for smaller shore break.
