Definition : Onshore

Definition: The onshore wind is the wind coming from the sea. This wind will break the waves and crush them. It will also create chop on the waves.

There is, however, one good thing about onshore wind, sideshore light, it allows the board to stick to your feet if you want to make aerials. This is a positive point for advanced surfers.
