Jones Beach Access
  Jones Beach is a state park... meaning VERY CROWDED by lifeguards... move down if you want to surf. Don't even bother during the weekend. Look for the large tower, and follow the signs.

Additional Surfing Infos
 Don't go from the months of June to August ULTRA CROWDED... just move down away from the lifeguards, they will call you into their watch. Family beach. I prefer TOBAY beach, less family and localism. Fun wave, nice winter swells. Can get big, when its too big, it gets sloppy. Nice around 6-8ft.
  Overview
  Atmosphere Once again... ULTRA CROWDED during the week and weekends. Best to stay after lifeguards leave... families go too, or go early. Frigid winters, but the swells are worth it.
  General I'd rather go to TOBAY or Gilgo or Robert Moses, try to escape localism. Just go out and have fun, try not to get wanna be spongers drop in on you. Some one help me get PICTURES up!!!!

I've been there a couple times. Feild 6 is probably the best and if your smart you'll get there early. Summer is pretty bad because schools out and everybody is at the beach, which means crowds are going to be insane. Oh yah, great place for skimboarding to.

totally not worth it!
First off, good luck getting into a parking lot with a surboard on top of your car. Most of the time the gaurds will tell you to leave. The waves suck and the crowds are even worse. Jones Beach is for all the people in Queens / Brooklyn looking to get away from Queens and Brooklyn.
