Catch this wave of news, beach lovers! Summer's officially wrapped up, and the National Weather Service Wilmington has signaled the end of the 2024 Surf Zone Forecast season.

From the sandy shores of Pender County's Surf City and Topsail Beach to the vibrant coastlines of New Hanover featuring Wrightsville and Carolina Beaches, our coastal guardians have hung up their forecast flags until spring.

Brunswick's beautiful beaches including Bald Head Island, Oak Island, and Sunset Beach are also joining the seasonal farewell. South Carolina isn't far behind, with Horry County's popular spots like Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle Beach and Georgetown's charming coastal gems like Pawleys Island and Murrells Inlet saying goodbye to official surf reports.

But don't let the forecast pause dampen your beach spirit! While the professional surf zone updates take a winter break, the ocean continues its eternal dance. Local surfers, beach enthusiasts, and coastal wanderers can still catch glimpses of marine conditions through other weather channels and local resources.

Mark your calendars - the National Weather Service will ride back into town with fresh surf zone forecasts on April 1st, 2025. Until then, keep your boards waxed, your spirits high, and your eyes on the horizon. The waves are always calling, forecast or not!

Stay salty, beach friends!
