Kennington Cove

Located on Cape Breton Island, Kennington Cove is an exposed beach break with consistent waves from both local and distant swells. The best conditions come with east-facing swells and north-northwest winds, producing both left and right-hand waves. Suitable for intermediate surfers, the cove is rarely crowded but features dangerous rips that require caution. The cold water demands a wetsuit, but the uncrowded lineup makes it a rewarding spot.
