Atlantic Terrace is a sandy beach break tucked along the eastern end of New York's coastline near Montauk, where the Atlantic opens up to expose the spot to long-period swells wrapping in from the south and southeast. Facing NNW, the break benefits from offshore winds out of the south and southwest, which groom the waves into punchy, rideable peaks that appeal to intermediate surfers looking for quality sessions away from the more crowded Montauk lineups. Fall is the prime season here, when hurricane groundswells push consistent energy up the Eastern Seaboard and the summer crowds have thinned out.
