Additional Information
Basically if the waves are picking up at high tide, pick a spot where you see waves breaking, and head out. Longboard or SUP board is probably your best option to really enjoy yourself.

Atmosphere
General
This is a fun spot to surf if the wind direction is just right and high tide. Due to the continental shelf going quite a ways out from the beach there is not normally great surf here. Hurricane season brings swells, but can be blown out and bad rip currents. This spot is more just a fun relaxing spot for bodysurfing, windsurfing, ocean kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, and occasionally surfing.
