A beach break sandbar in southern New Jersey that churns out fun, lined-up lefts and rights when NE or SE swell fills in. Best conditions arrive September through March, when NE groundswell and NW offshores combine to produce clean chest-high to well-overhead peaks. Mid-to-high tide generally shapes the sandbars best, though the spot can handle the full tidal range. The break suits all skill levels, from beginners logging their first pop-ups to intermediates working top-to-bottom on head-high walls, and it draws a moderate, relatively chill crowd with less localism pressure than many NJ spots. Bottom: sand with jetty influence. Season: Sep-Mar. Consistency: regular. Watch for the storm drain to the right of the main peak, submerged rocks that disappear at higher tides, and groins that create lateral currents during any solid swell pulse.
Crowded on weekends and during summer, but the vibe is notably more relaxed than many East Coast breaks. Forecasts rate localism as doable, and the community describes the lineup as accessible and welcoming. Dawn patrol on weekday mornings cuts the crowd significantly in peak summer months.
Also known as 110th Street, the spot is easy to find with public access and a short walk from parking. Summer months are the toughest for parking logistics. Hazards are real: groins, a protruding storm drain, submerged rocks near the drain that vanish at high tide, and rip currents on bigger swells. Scope the drain before paddling out.
When Nun's is blown out or maxed, nearby beach breaks up and down the southern NJ coastline offer comparable sandbar setups. Jetty peaks in the area can handle more size and provide a calmer paddle-out channel when beach break conditions are chaotic.
