Additional Surfing Infos |
| | To the left of the pier, if you are facing the Gulf, the bottem is a bit more shelly and pushes into the pier. The waves hold up better, their bigger and faster (usually) than the right.
Not much crowd to the right.
Can get decent swells at the end of the pier, but good breaks all the way in.
