Atmosphere
Atomspher extremly mellow great place to learn how to surf. The Lifeguards are a pain if you get outside the surf zone. On weekdays never crowded surfed 5 feet blowing offshore by myself. But the weekends do get crowded somtimes but when it is everyone is friendly never got yelled at.
General
Great spot

- Pretty decent break, especially when canes are comin through. need everything the last post said to get access to the beach. Definitely not as good as 1st st but im cool with it. Quite a bit of dolphin/fish activity. surf reports are usually spot on with sandbridge.

Garrett - Surf this spot regularly, usually early morning on Saturdays. The break seems to have shifted from the surf area to the swimming only area. If the forecast calls for nice waves, you can catch some good sets at low tide. Also, there seems to be a good bit of fish/dolphin activity, never seen a shark though.

- i surf this spot regularly also.i have seen a fisherman catching 3'-4' sandbar sharks out here.We counted him catching 7 in jus a few hours. He was casting out on the sandbar about 50 yards or so offshore. These sharks arent known to be aggressive but im just throwing it out there to the public. other than that, its a pretty decent sandbar and its a fun wave when its on. its more crowded on the weekends but thats anywhere in VB. watch yourself & be safe out there.
