Some spots will only break when the swell is coming from a certain direction. This is especially true for reef and point breaks. Many of the best waves in the world are formed when waves hit the bottom in precisely the right way. When the swell is hitting a break directly, the waves will be bigger, cleaner, and more powerful. If you know the swell is coming from the East and your usual spot takes SE, hop in your car (or get out a map) and find a place that can maximize the current swell direction. You'll get more and better sessions if you know a couple of different spots for each swell direction.

9/21/09: Buoy 44007, which supplies data for many Southern Maine locations, is currently transmitting data only intermittently and is scheduled to be serviced by the NDBC. Buoy 44030 has ceased transmitting data (also relevant to Southern Maine and NH); we will continue to monitor the buoy while seeking alternate data for this region. Thanks for your patience!
