Racine: 16th Street

A fine sandy bottom beach, and two possibilities to play this area inside the breakwall which is parallel to shore. Waves can roll in from the SouthEast, and funnel into the area between the breakwall and shore. They'll 'break' as they encounter a shoals/shallows which extends from shore to the breakwall. Alternatively, if waves are more from the East, they can enter a gap in the breakwall. As they do, those who recall a bit of wave physics may recall that straight waves coming through such a gap propagate inside the gap in a semi-circular fashion! This can make some great sufing fun.
