Flukies
Edit SpotAbout
When a storm's a'brewin and everywhere else is blown out by wind this place has clean waves that have the chop filtered out of them by the sandbars of the inlet.
Atmosphere:
This place is empty besides for the summer dog-walkers.
Additional Info:
Flukie's doesn't break over knee high unless there's a big nor-easter or hurricane swell because it is in the back of the inlet. When there's swell this place goes off. Paddle out to the end of the rocks almost underneath the bridge and just wait for the waves. They get super long.
