More about Florence - North Jetty surfspot
Just south of the exquisite Heceta Head and lighthouse, Highway 101 sweeps inland to bypass some 50mi (80km) of coastal sand dunes, interrupted in only a few places by major rivermouths. The northernmost of these is the Siuslaw, and the nondescript town of Florence perches on its final bend before emptying into the Pacific between massive rock jetties. On S wind days, head over to The North Jetty where there can be excellent beachbreak surf when the swell’s small. In Florence, Jetty Road will lead you out to the north jetty.
Moderate shark worries. Die-hard locals confuse this place as a world-class spot and may be unfriendly.
