THIS SPOT IS NOT FOR BEGINERS! You will see the end of sea island across the channel. The best way to enter the channel is jumping off the pier (its not big at all) and them paddle like mad to the beach at the end of sea island. Once you make it to the beach go to the ocean side and you will see the waves. Good luck, this spot is very fun but the current can be very DANGEROUS paddling across the inlet/channel.

Not a surf spot - Goulds Inlet is a fishing spot. I have never seen ridable surf there.

dont bother - grew up here. this place gets maybe 2 to 3 ft. during BIG swells. Its just not very good, should be 1 star. If its 2 ft [waist high] here, then you can drive 1 hr 20 min. south and it will be head high and 3 times as long and good. Yhe bottom contour of the Ga. coast screws everything up so if you want waves you gotta travel. Northside Jax=1hr. 20min. St. Andrews=5hrs Satellite Bch=4hrs Costa=1day BVI=1day GET THE IDEA...............
