 Surf Spot Characteristics

 Additional Information

There is a park lot @ the river mouth. Also, beach parking for the other spots. The Army Corps of Engineers just built another jetty between the two existing jetties to correct sand flow into the channel. This has created another break depending on the swell direction.

Atmosphere

There is actualy 4 different breaks here. There is the jetty across the river. Which breaks good on a N.E. or E. swell. Can get up 100 yds rights here. Then there is the point just down from the jetty. Man made by the dredging of the Colorado. Creating a steep sand point here. Also, good on cold fronts. Long rights. Then on the public beach side. There is Spanish Tiles. Hard breaking beachbreak. Then down the public breach about 5 miles is Shellbanks. This wave breaks on a shellbank in super shallow water. Creaing a fast, hallow beachbreak. You know surfing here is serious biz after getting pounded on this bottom.

General

This is one of my favorite Texas spots. Because of the power Gorda offers. At adnormally high tide the outside break stops breaking and the only break will be the inside sand bar. This is like a real ocean wave when it gets like this.
