Weekapaug is a scenic beach break tucked along the southwestern Rhode Island coastline, facing roughly north-northwest into Block Island Sound. The spot picks up south and southwest groundswells that wrap around the barrier beach, producing punchy, hollow peaks best enjoyed during fall hurricane season when powerful Atlantic swells light up the sandbars. Its relatively uncrowded lineup and charming coastal setting make it a favorite among Rhode Island surfers looking to escape the more trafficked spots to the east.
