Spot Guide
Scarborough Beach in Maine is a classic New England beach break that picks up south to southeast swells funneling into Saco Bay, producing mellow, rolling waves well-suited for beginners and longboarders. The spot faces NNW, meaning it is sheltered from direct open-ocean hammering but catches refracted swell energy that wraps into the bay, keeping conditions manageable even on bigger swell days. Fall is prime time here when hurricane-season groundswells combine with offshore winds and thinning crowds to deliver some of the best surf Maine has to offer.
