Spot Details
Bathed by the Gulf Stream, this area of the coast is warming up fast in the spring and offers up perfect ocean riding in the predominant SW winds. A popular weekend spot when SW winds are in. Locals and visitors alike setup near the Hatteras Ferry Docks and do long ocean down-winders to Frisco Pier. When there is good SW wind swell this can be unreal with endless carves possible as you smash wave after wave! Definitely a great place with the cross-onshore wind to master surfing with kites whether strapless or strapped. Grab a buddy and get on this session its one of the all time Hatteras greats.
