Dog Beach Surf Guide
Break on the quieter, north end of Asbury Park that is on par with most breaks in town but can come alive on south and southeast swells. The wave is mostly set up south of the jetty on 8th. Best on west winds but can handle some southwest. This is the designated surf beach in the summer. Vibrant surf community in Asbury with several surf shops, part of Jersey Shore Surfrider Foundation Chapter.
