Ogunquit River is a scenic rivermouth break tucked along the southern Maine coastline, where the outflow of the Ogunquit River shapes sandbars that can produce surprisingly well-formed, peeling waves. Facing NNW toward the Gulf of Maine, it picks up northeast and east swells that wrap into the river mouth, creating punchy, hollow peaks best surfed at low to mid tide. This spot captures the rugged charm of Maine surfing — cold water, uncrowded lineups, and a raw natural setting that rewards those willing to suit up in a thick wetsuit.
