Located in Southern North Carolina, Carolina Beach is a decent beach break that breaks over a sand bottom. The waves here can be challenging at times and break for up to 50 meters providing some excellent sections for manoeuvres.
What are the best surf conditions for Carolina Beach?
Gets good from waist high to double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard when smaller and a shortboard when bigger. Carolina Beach is suitable for all levels of surfer. The surf here is consistent (7/10) and will always have a crew on it (7/10). Offshores from the East. Best swells from the West. Works best on mid to high tides.
We recommend wearing boardshorts or a bikini in the summer when water temperatures rise to 28 degrees. In winter the temps plunge to 14 degrees, so a 4/3 is best. See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
