Summer Beach Surf Guide
The fickle nature of the bar means that many surfers who swing in here in the forlorn hope that it will be working, will often end up surfing some of the beachbreaks further up the beach. Fortunately the beachies in these parts can get really good. A carbon copy of Hobson's Beachbreak just a few miles north, Summer Beach is a two-mile span of scattered sand-bottom peaks. What you see (closeouts with the occasional mushy corner) is what you get.
