Bradley Beach Surf Guide
Bradley, like most towns in Monmouth County, has a host of jetties that can handle, and shape up nicely, a variety of swell. The 3rd Avenue surfing beach is a good hit. And Brimley Avenue can take an E swell, so, when everywhere else is closing out, Brimley is the call. Bradley Beach is just another quiet coastal enclave in North Jersey that will never have the best surf in the state, but will always have something to offer, especially in the fall, winter and spring.
