14th Street North Surf Guide
The former site of Brigantine's Haunted Castle and Fishing Pier, it is now known as the Seawall by those too young to remember making out in a spooky fun house that smelled like cut bait. Nice, lined-up lefts show on a shoulder- to head-high northeast swell, but all that remains of the pier are a few disjointed pilings.Fun, playful rights and lefts show on smaller days. Wooden groins, built to restrict erosion, lie to the south of the former pier. You can surf all day here, even in the summer. But you will need your beach tag.
