I am going to New Jersey to visit a friend and am looking for a good kayak surf spot that does not have dumping surf, preferably where the surf is quite a bit out from shore, and an area that gets larger swells. The further north along the Jersey coast the better, because less driving is involved. Any ideas?

I'd watch out for hypodermic needles and other medical waste while going through the surf. NJ has a reputation.

The best places with offshore breaks are Corsen's Inlet and Sea Isle City, both in South Jersey. There are lots of place further with shore break, like Belmar. -----Original Message----- From: Bradford R.
