An east swell wraps into Ditch cleanly, producing defined peaks, workable shoulders, and walls that reward committed surfing.

Consider gloves and booties if you're planning an extended session. Wind is the remaining variable: light or westerly and conditions could get genuinely fun; onshore and the surface deteriorates quickly at this size.<br /><br />Bottom line: solid east swell, real surf on offer at Montauk.

The swell is sitting at two feet out of the SSE at eight seconds — not a groundswell with serious punch, but offshore north winds at nine miles per hour are cleaning up the faces and giving what's there a presentable shape. A clean two-footer can be a lot of fun if you show up with the right equipment and the right attitude.<br /><br />Ditch Plains is your go-to today. The Point needs more size to wake up, and it's not getting it. If you're heading out, bring the longboard or a high-volume shortboard — you'll want the paddle power to catch waves early. Time your session around mid to low tide, when Ditch Plains tends to pull the most shape out of a small swell.<br /><br />Water temperature is 56.8°F, so a 4/3 full wetsuit is non-negotiable. Air temp is a comfortable 60.6°F, but don't let the beach conditions fool you into under-suiting for the water. The ocean will remind you fast.<br /><br />The overall read: today rewards surfers who genuinely want to be out there. The conditions won't come looking for you, but if you're willing to work with them, there's a real session to be had. Paddle out, trim the longboard, and enjoy the clean offshore faces while the wind holds.<br /><br />This is the Surf Report for Montauk New York — a daily briefing covering wave height, swell direction and period, wind, water temperature, and surf quality for Montauk's key breaks.

A clean two-footer can be a lot of fun if you show up with the right equipment and the right attitude.<br /><br />Ditch Plains is your go-to today. The Point needs more size to wake up, and it's not getting it. If you're heading out, bring the longboard or a high-volume shortboard — you'll want the paddle power to catch waves early. Time your session around mid to low tide, when Ditch Plains tends to pull the most shape out of a small swell.<br /><br />Water temperature is 56.8°F, so a 4/3 full wetsuit is non-negotiable. Air temp is a comfortable 60.6°F, but don't let the beach conditions fool you into under-suiting for the water. The ocean will remind you fast.<br /><br />The overall read: today rewards surfers who genuinely want to be out there. The conditions won't come looking for you, but if you're willing to work with them, there's a real session to be had. Paddle out, trim the longboard, and enjoy the clean offshore faces while the wind holds.<br /><br />This is the Surf Report for Montauk New York — a daily briefing covering wave height, swell direction and period, wind, water temperature, and surf quality for Montauk's key breaks. A YesWee production, built using AI technology.<br /><br />This episode includes AI-generated content.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>122</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>56 degree surf wetsuit,ditch plains conditions,ditch plains surf,east coast surf report,longboard session tips,long island surf forecast,montauk daily briefing,montauk surfing podcast,montauk surf report,montauk wave conditions,offshore surf montauk,small swell surfing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/7f51207daa13239db3e5f4e8ead18c29.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Surf Report for Montauk New York - Wednesday - 27 May 2026</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/surf-report-for-montauk-new-york-wednesday-27-may-2026--72183530</link><description><![CDATA[A 3-foot ESE swell is hitting Montauk this morning, and while it's not a long-period groundswell, there's enough energy to make the session worthwhile — especially at Ditch Plains.<br /><br />The swell is tracking in at 3.0 feet from 110 degrees ESE with an 8-second period.

Welcome to the Montauk surf report built for surfers who actually need to decide whether to load the board bag. This debut episode lays out exactly what you can expect every day: honest, no-hype wave height, swell direction and period, wind conditions, water temperature, and a clear verdict on whether it's worth paddling out at Ditch Plains or the Point.<br /><br />No live data today — this is the handshake. But the framework matters. Swell period is the number that separates a punchy, rideable wave from flat-looking mush. Wind direction tells you whether Ditch Plains is groomed and peeling or blown out and ugly. Water temperature tells you what to wear so you're not standing on the sand in a spring suit when it's 48 degrees.<br /><br />Ditch Plains and the Point are covered every episode because they can be doing completely different things on the same morning. Ditch Plains offers long rights and a forgiving entry across a wide range of swells. The Point is more powerful, more technical, and heavily tide-dependent — a different read entirely.<br /><br />This show runs under three minutes, comes out daily, and gives you the straight answer: firing, marginal, or skip it. No cheerleading, no overhyping waist-high slop.<br /><br />Real conditions data starts with the next episode. Paddle back in tomorrow.<br /><br />This episode includes AI-generated content.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/72129073</guid><pubDate>Sat, 23 May 2026 11:05:14 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72129073/surf_report_for_montauk_new_york_daily_surf_conditions_episode_01_20260523_110435.mp3" length="2189952" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/f1441a56-fdce-436e-9664-f1e5a749a78d/f1441a56-fdce-436e-9664-f1e5a749a78d.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/f1441a56-fdce-436e-9664-f1e5a749a78d/f1441a56-fdce-436e-9664-f1e5a749a78d.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/f1441a56-fdce-436e-9664-f1e5a749a78d/f1441a56-fdce-436e-9664-f1e5a749a78d.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><podcast:txt purpose="ai-content">true</podcast:txt><itunes:author>YesOui</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Welcome to the Montauk surf report built for surfers who actually need to decide whether to load the board bag.

But the framework matters. Swell period is the number that separates a punchy, rideable wave from flat-looking mush. Wind direction tells you whether Ditch Plains is groomed and peeling or blown out and ugly. Water temperature tells you what to wear so you're not standing on the sand in a spring suit when it's 48 degrees.<br /><br />Ditch Plains and the Point are covered every episode because they can be doing completely different things on the same morning. Ditch Plains offers long rights and a forgiving entry across a wide range of swells. The Point is more powerful, more technical, and heavily tide-dependent — a different read entirely.<br /><br />This show runs under three minutes, comes out daily, and gives you the straight answer: firing, marginal, or skip it. No cheerleading, no overhyping waist-high slop.<br /><br />Real conditions data starts with the next episode. Paddle back in tomorrow.<br /><br />This episode includes AI-generated content.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>137</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>daily surf conditions,ditch plains new york,ditch plains surf,east coast surf report,long island surf forecast,long island surfing,montauk point break,montauk surfing podcast,montauk surf report,montauk wave conditions,surf podcast daily,swell period surfing</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/7f51207daa13239db3e5f4e8ead18c29.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Surf Report for Montauk New York - Friday - 22 May 2026</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/surf-report-for-montauk-new-york-friday-22-may-2026--72113134</link><description><![CDATA[(00:00:00) Surf Report for Montauk New York - Friday - 22 May 2026<br />

Before you strap the board to the roof, this is your Montauk surf briefing. Today's conditions are uncertain, but uncertainty doesn't mean uninformed — and this episode walks you through exactly what to look for before you commit to the drive out east.<br /><br />Ditch Plains is your more forgiving option. Any south or southeast swell will find shape on that sandbar, producing rideable waist-to-chest-high walls even on a weak-period day. But sandbars shift, so walk the beach and read it fresh before you paddle out. The Point is a different calculation entirely — one of the better right-hand points on the East Coast when it's working, but it demands the right swell angle and enough size to wake it up. Don't chase it on a marginal day.<br /><br />Wind is the single most important variable at Montauk. Offshore west or northwest winds groom the face and hold the lip. Onshore south or southwest winds turn everything choppy and crumbly. Check wind direction before you check wave height — it tells you more. Water temperature is running cool, so bring a 4/3 wetsuit minimum, and seriously consider booties.<br /><br />On tides: mid-tide is the sweet spot at both breaks. Dead low exposes too much reef at the Point and kills the bank at Ditch. High tide tends to make waves fat and slow. Hit the push if you can time it.<br /><br />Practical, honest, under three minutes — this is your daily Montauk wave conditions briefing for surfers on Long Island and the East Coast.<br /><br />This episode includes AI-generated content.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/72113134</guid><pubDate>Fri, 22 May 2026 11:05:42 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72113134/surf_report_for_montauk_new_york_daily_surf_conditions_episode_01_20260522_110500.mp3" length="2101248" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/a42cff91-e384-4c9c-9cce-7fd4fea4ae6e/a42cff91-e384-4c9c-9cce-7fd4fea4ae6e.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/a42cff91-e384-4c9c-9cce-7fd4fea4ae6e/a42cff91-e384-4c9c-9cce-7fd4fea4ae6e.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/a42cff91-e384-4c9c-9cce-7fd4fea4ae6e/a42cff91-e384-4c9c-9cce-7fd4fea4ae6e.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><podcast:txt purpose="ai-content">true</podcast:txt><itunes:author>YesOui</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Before you strap the board to the roof, this is your Montauk surf briefing.

Summer has arrived in Montauk, and if you're planning a surf trip to Ditch Plains or the Point, the forecast is only half the picture. This episode of the Montauk surf report breaks down the real challenge of peak season surfing on Long Island's East End — and it's as much about logistics as it is about wave height.<br /><br />Ditch Plains remains the go-to break on the East Coast for good reason. It handles a wide range of swells, stays consistent by regional standards, and on a solid south or southeast swell it produces proper head-high-plus sets. But July and August bring the crowds, and the empty-lineup window disappears fast. The move is getting out early — well before nine on weekends — or targeting weekday mornings if your schedule allows.<br /><br />The Point is the other break worth keeping on your radar. More swell-sensitive and less forgiving than Ditch, it naturally thins the lineup and rewards surfers who can read conditions. When a real south swell rolls through this summer, that's where you want to position.<br /><br />Tide timing is underrated out here. Mid-incoming tends to produce the best shape at Ditch — too low gets punchy and sectiony, too high and the lip starts dragging. Run the tide charts the night before.<br /><br />For those newer to surfing, CoreysWave and East End Surf Club both offer lessons at Ditch Plains starting around $150. Book ahead. And if you're making a longer trip of it, the Surf Lodge is programming live music this summer — Snoop Dogg and Teddy Swims among others — as it approaches its twentieth year.<br /><br />Time it right and Montauk delivers.

(00:01:12) Reading Montauk Conditions<br />
(00:01:56) What to Expect Going Forward<br />
<br />
Before the daily numbers roll in, here's the foundation. This debut episode of the Montauk surf report lays out exactly what this show is and what it isn't — no invented forecasts, no filler, just honest daily conditions for surfers heading out to Montauk, New York.<br /><br />No fresh swell data was in hand for this first episode, and rather than make numbers up, the show uses the time well: a proper introduction to Montauk's two key breaks. Ditch Plains is the heartbeat of surfing on Long Island's East End — a consistent beach break that works for beginners and rewards experienced surfers when northeast swells line up with westerly or southwesterly offshore winds. The Point handles size better, produces longer rides, and suits surfers who know how to read a break.<br /><br />Montauk fires best on northeast swells with offshore winds out of the west or southwest. Catch Ditch Plains before nine in the morning on a clean northeast and a shortboard feels alive. When the wind goes onshore, it gets choppy fast — timing is everything. Summer water temperature sits in the low-to-mid sixties Fahrenheit; a spring suit gives you options and extends your session.<br /><br />Every episode going forward delivers the honest daily read: wave height, swell period and direction, wind conditions, water temperature, and surf quality at Ditch Plains and the Point. When it's firing, you'll know. When it's flat or messy, that's what you'll hear — and why. Practical, specific, under three minutes.

(00:00:29) Why Conditions Data Matters<br />
(00:00:59) Reading Ditch Plains and the Point<br />
(00:01:36) Water Temperature and What to Wear<br />
(00:01:59) What to Watch Going Forward<br />
<br />
Welcome to the first episode of the Montauk surf report. No live conditions data was available for this episode, and rather than invent numbers, the show lays out exactly what you need to know to read Montauk yourself until real-time reporting is fully underway.<br /><br />Ditch Plains performs best on a south to south-southeast swell with a period of eight to twelve seconds — that's when the wave lines up cleanly. Shorter period swells tend to close out fast. The Point at Montauk favours a longer-period, more easterly swell and rewards surfers at lower tide when the shape gets defined and the rides get longer.<br /><br />Wind is everything out here. A northwest offshore wind in the morning can make even a moderate swell look glassy and inviting. An onshore southwest wind tells a very different story. Cross-reference what you hear on this show with live readings on Magic Seaweed or Surfline, and trust your eyes on the horizon when you're in the car park at Ditch Plains.<br /><br />Water temperature at Montauk swings hard through the year — low to mid seventies in summer, low fifties by late autumn, and cold spring surprises that catch people off guard.

<br />
Welcome to the first episode of the Montauk surf report. No live conditions data was available for this episode, and rather than invent numbers, the show lays out exactly what you need to know to read Montauk yourself until real-time reporting is fully underway.<br /><br />Ditch Plains performs best on a south to south-southeast swell with a period of eight to twelve seconds — that's when the wave lines up cleanly. Shorter period swells tend to close out fast. The Point at Montauk favours a longer-period, more easterly swell and rewards surfers at lower tide when the shape gets defined and the rides get longer.<br /><br />Wind is everything out here. A northwest offshore wind in the morning can make even a moderate swell look glassy and inviting. An onshore southwest wind tells a very different story. Cross-reference what you hear on this show with live readings on Magic Seaweed or Surfline, and trust your eyes on the horizon when you're in the car park at Ditch Plains.<br /><br />Water temperature at Montauk swings hard through the year — low to mid seventies in summer, low fifties by late autumn, and cold spring surprises that catch people off guard. Know your wetsuit situation before you leave the house.<br /><br />From episode two onward, every episode will be built on current, confirmed conditions data — wave height, swell direction and period, wind speed, water temperature, and surf quality for Montauk's key breaks. This is the honest starting point. Check local sources for today, and we'll have you covered properly next time.<br /><br />This episode includes AI-generated content.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>146</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>daily surf briefing,ditch plains break guide,ditch plains surf,east coast surf report,long island surf forecast,montauk point surfing,montauk surfing podcast,montauk surf report,montauk wave conditions,montauk wetsuit guide,reading surf conditions,surfline alternative</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/7f51207daa13239db3e5f4e8ead18c29.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Surf Report for Montauk New York - Sunday - 17 May 2026</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/surf-report-for-montauk-new-york-sunday-17-may-2026--72043980</link><description><![CDATA[(00:00:00) Surf Report for Montauk New York - Sunday - 17 May 2026<br />

A New York State Air Quality Health Advisory is in effect for Nassau and Suffolk counties — including Montauk — through 11 p.m. Sunday, and it changes the calculus for every surfer planning to hit Ditch Plains or the Point this weekend. Ground-level ozone is pushing above an Air Quality Index of 100, the threshold where outdoor exertion carries genuine health risk. Children, older adults, and anyone with asthma or a respiratory condition should skip it entirely. For healthy adults, shorter morning sessions are the smarter play — ozone levels tend to be lower before the afternoon heat builds.<br /><br />On the wave side, Ditch Plains is holding waist-to-chest-high sets on a south to southeast swell with enough period to keep things organised between sets. The Point has a little more shape for experienced surfers, especially on the right tides. Onshore wind is chopping up afternoon conditions, so morning is the move for surface quality too.<br /><br />Tide-wise, mid to incoming has been the sweet spot at Ditch — it fills the sandbar and keeps the wave from closing out too fast. The overlap between early morning and mid-tide is where air quality and surf conditions both favour you. Check your tide chart before you leave the house.<br /><br />The advisory runs through Sunday night. If it doesn't extend, early next week could offer cleaner air and a fresher swell angle — a window worth watching. Waveable this weekend, but complicated. Get there early, stay aware, and know who should sit this one out.<br /><br />This episode includes AI-generated content.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/72043980</guid><pubDate>Sun, 17 May 2026 18:55:46 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72043980/surf_report_for_montauk_new_york_daily_surf_conditions_episode_01_20260517_185238.mp3" length="2381184" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/e5ec70ee-b031-4bd1-9fb9-507ede4e9967/e5ec70ee-b031-4bd1-9fb9-507ede4e9967.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/e5ec70ee-b031-4bd1-9fb9-507ede4e9967/e5ec70ee-b031-4bd1-9fb9-507ede4e9967.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/e5ec70ee-b031-4bd1-9fb9-507ede4e9967/e5ec70ee-b031-4bd1-9fb9-507ede4e9967.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><podcast:txt purpose="ai-content">true</podcast:txt><itunes:author>YesOui</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>A New York State Air Quality Health Advisory is in effect for Nassau and Suffolk counties — including Montauk — through 11 p.m. Sunday, and it changes the calculus for every surfer planning to hit Ditch Plains or the Point this weekend.
