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
Sunday afternoon looks most promising with 4-5ft waves and 6-second periods, though those northwest winds will be pretty strong so it's a gamble. I'd probably hit it around the PM high tide at 9:02 when the wind might back off a bit from the morning blow.
