The Wooden Jetty is a beach break near the southern tip of Long Beach Island where a wooden jetty structure helps organize sandbars and create defined peaks. The SE-facing exposure picks up swells from tropical systems and nor'easters, with the jetty providing a reference point for lineup positioning and concentrating sand on its upcurrent side. NW offshore winds clean up the faces nicely, making fall the prime season for quality surf at this relatively uncrowded spot.
