More about Cape San Blas surfspot

General: Heading southeast down the coast from Mexico Beach, you'll find Cape San Blas, which hides a nice pointbreak. The cape is at the southern tip of a sand spit/peninsula, and has a right point that breaks on S and W swells. Tides: Light outgoing Size: Waist-overhead Wind: NNE, NE, E Swell: SSE, S, SSW Bottom: Sand Paddling: Easy on small days, tougher paddle on larger swells. Spot Rating: Average beachbreak overall but with the right swell, there are some sandbars that light up. Be sure to scan the waters though, this is bull shark territory.

Better than average to expert.

Park and walk 20 minutes.

Fall-Spring, Hurricane

Crowd Factor: None - just you and the bull sharks. Local Vibe: None.

This is the emerald coast, so named due to the water color.

Sharks - lot of bull sharks at times.
