Structure: Steep contour a short distance off the beach makes Race Point a legendary location for boats and surfcasters. The edge drops off to 150' less then a quater mile from shore and is a very popular location for both commercial/charter boats and the recreational fleet.  The Race will contain large volumes of striped bass during the spring migration from early June through mid July.  Directly off Race Point lighthouse the contours form a point that will form a rip line during peak tides on both the ebb and flood holding fish.
