Monatuk and New York Beaches Surf Report for 04-17-2025
Published 1 year ago
Description
Hey beach lovers! This is your surf report for the New York coastal areas on this cloudy Sunday.
Buckle up for a high-risk rip current day across all our local beaches. The ocean is serving up some serious attitude with surf heights around 3 to 4 feet and east winds hammering between 15 to 20 miles per hour.
From Coney Island to Rockaway Beach, Jones Beach to Fire Island, the message is crystal clear: stay out of the water today. These are not your typical lazy waves - these are power surges that could sweep you off your feet faster than you can say "surf's up!"
Temperatures are hovering in the upper 60s with a chance of rain adding to the moody maritime atmosphere. The UV index is low, so if you're thinking about catching some beach time, bring a light jacket and maybe a good book.
Quick tide intel: Low tides are rolling in around midday - Jones Inlet at 11:55 AM, Fire Island Inlet at 11:53 AM, and Shinnecock Inlet at 12:07 PM. Sunset comes early today at around 6:40 PM, so plan accordingly.
Seriously, ocean safety is no joke. If you absolutely must enter the water, have a flotation device, stay near a lifeguard, and remember: if caught in a rip current, float, don't fight. Swim parallel to the shore and signal for help if needed.
These forecasts won't resume until Memorial Day weekend next year, so consider this your maritime mic drop for 2024. Stay safe, beach fans!
