About This Spot
Nauset Beach is an exposed beach break on outer Cape Cod known for its consistency and power. It works best on southeast swells with offshore west winds and offers both left and right peaks; strong rip currents and occasional great white shark sightings add to the drama.
Local Etiquette
Follow shark advisories, respect lifeguards and fishermen, and share waves kindly.
