Surfing has never been this fun and budget-friendly! With the advent of cheap flights within the USA, surfers from all over the world can easily tag their friends or family. Edgewater Park offers an array of adventure possibilities for everyone.

GENERAL
This is only one of at least 4 surfable spots in the area (including Mentor). It has a tiny sandy beach and it's very close to downtown. Erie is the shallowest of the Great Lakes and has the warmest water. It'll need a fair bit of wind or stormy weather to break, so depending on the season, you'll be needing a wettie! And most definitely a Longboard, the bigger the better. (Deep winter is only for the seriously surf-starved or madly-addicted; the Few, the Brave, the Frozen. Watch out for icebergs.)

SPOT RATING: 3***
(1- not so okay, 2-okay, 3-cool, 4-very cool, 5-the ultimate spot)
I rate it a 'cool' 3 for existing. Cleveland Rocks!
