Surfers and beach lovers, gather 'round for the final wave report of the 2024 season! As the autumn chill settles in, the National Weather Service in Wilmington is hanging up its surf forecast clipboard until spring.

From the sandy shores of Surf City and Topsail Beach in Pender County to the vibrant beaches of Wrightsville and Carolina Beach in New Hanover, our coastal guardians have been tracking every ripple and swell. Brunswick's beautiful beaches - Bald Head Island, Oak Island, and Sunset Beach - have also been under our watchful eye.

But the surf story doesn't end at the North Carolina border. Our friends in South Carolina's Horry County, with their iconic spots like Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle Beach, and the charming coastal gems of Georgetown County like Pawleys Island and Murrells Inlet, have been part of this maritime narrative.

As the waves whisper their seasonal goodbye, we're looking forward to the 2025 Beach Season. Mark your calendars, wave riders - the surf forecast returns on April 1st, 2025. Until then, keep your boards waxed, your spirit high, and your connection to the ocean strong.

Stay stoked, stay safe, and see you when the spring swells roll in!
