Gulf Side - When i was younger I would always head over to the East coast and do my surfing over there, now with work, family and house obligations it's harder to get out so I think as hurricane season approaches I'll give the Gulf side a try since it's minutes away verses hours.

- I just moved to Florida recently from Cali. I've traveled to Hawaii to surf the North Shore and some other secret spots. Best of all, I'm only 14. So i can't complain. But I went out to Sunset with some friends i met here in Fl to surf. WOW!!! is all i can really say. It's so crowded. I was out there and spotted some dolphins and i seen a few fins too which i thought was sharks but who knows. It's a fun place to surf but i've seen better. But its ok for the West Coast of Fl. I wish i could've stayed in Cali but i had a major surf accident and my parents made me move here with my uncle so i would stay out of the surf. Nothing will keep me outta the water. Little do they know, i've been to the East Coast a couple of times with some friends that can drive. I just wanna go back to Cali:-( Much love to all the surfers and do be polite to beginngers b/c u were one once. Hang ten as always:-)
