Waves breaking on sandy bottom, varied conditions
Long Beach is a beach break located on the northeast coast of Barbados facing northeast toward the Atlantic Ocean. The spot features a sandy beach with direct ocean exposure and visible reef structures in the nearshore zone. Water conditions show moderate to rough state with consistent wave activity. The area experiences Atlantic swell exposure with an average wave height of 1.52m and strong wind patterns. Best conditions occur with northwest winds (315°) providing consistent side-shore conditions.
