Lavenia Ave is a beach break on the mid-section of Long Beach Island, offering punchy peaks that form over shifting sandbars along the Atlantic-facing shoreline. The spot picks up ESE to E swells well, especially during fall hurricane season when groundswells deliver the most organized surf. Like many LBI beach breaks, conditions vary significantly from week to week depending on how storms have sculpted the bottom, rewarding surfers who know how to read the sandbars.
