Additional Surfing Infos
 Park your car as close to the boardwalk as possible and, remember to lock your car and hide your valubles because if not it will get broke into. Take off close to the jetty and pull into a barrel right, watch out for pissed fishermen.
  Overview
  Atmosphere Dangerous, there is a lot of shootings and robberies other than that great surf. Make sure to leave before night.
  General A great spot to go but make sure you know someone there before you go.

I've lived and surfed here for years. Vermont Ave, Metro's, New Jersey, States, South Carolina. Iv'e heard Crystals, Gas Chambers, Mini Pipe, and have even seen Steel Pier posed as "Casino Pier located in Atlantic City" in Surfer Magazine. People over do it with the inaccurate names and descriptions of this place. The crime is there, the crack heads are there, the trash, the gangs, the crazy asians, the weirdo's, the needles, all of it. It's not like a gang of hoods is going to want to fight your white ass with our tight suits on. They just usually want to know how cold the water is then just laugh and say, " Damn N**** you crazy man, you crazy." This place is full of diversity from white, black, asian, and mexican surfers, of all different ages. Everyone that surfs this place year around know one anothers boards and faces. If someone asked any of us how crystals (Absolutely NO Capitalization) was, we would either laugh or smile and simply keep walking.

this spots fun even if theres no waves...last time i was there a guy dove in butt naked and your practically surfin in front of the taj mahal. the poes try to catch you while your changing in the parking lot and the hoods try and steal your stuff. dont forget to take the ez pass out of your car after drivin down the parkway- it will be gone by the time you go back to your car if you forget. but regardless AC is super fun.
