The North East has some excellent breaks which work predominately from Arctic groundswells. Occasionally when there is a high pressure over the continent on an easterly wind the surf will pump too.

Scarborough: waves either side of the headland.

North Bay: faces North and breaks over sand and rocks.

South Bay: is a beach break and needs a big swell to work. Because of the harbour wall at Scarborough, both breaks work at mid to low-tide only.

Lighthouse Pier: a break in the South Bay, works on big swells.

Cayton Bay: works at all states of tide. North East facing, it has gnarly left reef point which works on big swells on a high tide (The Point).

The Pumphouse: is a mid to high tide spot and Bunkers at the southern end is a beachbreak which works best from mid to high tide.

Saltburn: good beachbreak peaks either side of the pier, best around high tide.
