English (Traduisez ce texte en Français): Water Temps can fluctuate pretty rapidly here on Long Island. A few days of North winds can drop temps 5-10 degrees, and they might rise just as quickly. Water temps generally rise 10 degrees a month starting in the 30's in Feb, peaking around 72 in September(best time). Along with a quiver of boards, a quiver of wetsuits is a good idea.
Variations saisonnières de houle et de vent:
English (Traduisez ce texte en Français): Any storm that can produce S,SSE,SE,ESE swell will generate waves somewhere on the Island. Generally after a front moves through the wind will switch from northerly offshores around to westerly sideshores which chop it up.

surfing long island - hi,
i live and study in munich germany and i'll visit new york next week. even though there is little opportunity in munich to surf i'm a passionate surfer since i started surfing last year in spain. this year i went to the canary islands for surfing. of course my surfing skills are still very limited. since i'll be in new york for a week i really want to check out the waves there and go surfing for one or two days.
i'd be very grateful if you gave me some piece of advise for instance on which, not too crowded beach, i can rent a board.

NYC to LB - Ignore LBC, he is a liar and thinks being a surfer entitles him to be a douche. I live in the city and surf LB all the time and most people there are cool and I have never been hassled. It is crowded during the summer though; however wimpy summer waves are not worth fighting someone over. To the person asking for surf shop and lesson advice, I have always been treated well by Unsound Surf and they can hook you up with someone for lessons (ask for Candice). LB Surf is also a good shop with a large selection of boards. Fun shapes are good beginner boards but just talk to someone who surfs that works at the shop and they will steer you in the right direction. As far as cost, buy a used board for your first if you can.
