Local Knowledge - The sandbars here change almost every week. You gotta know the spots to surf here. Don't come here expecting to just find waves, you'll be out of luck. Go home kooks, or go to Jersey.

fire island fires - fire island sucks, for the most part. maybe like 5 percent of the fifty something miles of coastline is worth surfing. but its almost never gonna break right, and when it does, you will most likely not find these phantom sandbars, or it will be the middle of winter. good luck.
