Ditch Plains
Edit SpotAbout
this is a fun spot and for all of those skaters there is a near-by skate park.
Atmosphere:
Locals are really cool but you have to watch out for those out of towners... ya know the ones who are down from New York City for the week.
Additional Info:
when you go down ditch plains rd. dont park in the first parking lot go to where the hotel is and park there it is a shorter walk. Stay just off of the rock pile and catch the rights, there are some lefts but they dont have as much punch. Although, if u catch a left the bottom turns to sand.Ditch is surfed off the jetty at the east end parking lot away from the lifeguards...

A good right hander breaking off of a Jetty with a rock bottom. Great veiw and easy to find. In the summer-time its really crowded with longboarders every where the local shops are great.
