About Duxbury Beach

Duxbury Beach is a long barrier beach that picks up solid south and east swell. The waves are classic New England beach break—shifty, sand-bottom peaks that change with the tide. It's less crowded than the South Shore's more famous spots and offers plenty of room to find your own peak. Cold water and fickle conditions keep the crowds down.

This Week's Outlook

Friday morning looks like your best bet with 2-foot waves and longer 4-second periods, even though the southwest wind will be a bit messy. Everything else is pretty small at 1-foot, so if you're gonna paddle out, that's when I'd go.
