New Smyrna Beach surf guide

New Smyrna Beach, located on the south side of Ponce Inlet, is known as one of the most consistent surf breaks in Florida and the East Coast. This beach attracts surfers year-round, making it a popular spot to catch some waves. The wide beach offers plenty of space, and driving on the sand is common. Just be careful not to park too close to the dunes to avoid getting a ticket. You'll find surfers scattered along the beach, so there's usually someone out at every peak.

The surf at New Smyrna works best on northeast to east-northeast swells, with the best conditions happening around mid to high tide. It usually handles wave sizes from about 1 foot (0.3 meters) to 6 feet (1.8 meters). Although smaller waves can be found along the beach, near the inlet, they can ramp up to be three times larger. Expect right and left breaks on the sandy bottom, with the waves getting more peaky as the swell shifts towards the east. It’s mostly suitable for intermediate and expert surfers, given that there can be some serious paddle battles, and the crowd can be tight.

When it comes to the environment, New Smyrna Beach remains relatively clean. The crowd can get packed, especially during the fall and winter months, which is considered the best time for waves. Keep in mind that with the busy surfing scene, it's essential to give local surfers their space. Be aware of hazards like sharks and speeding cars while enjoying your time in the water. This place is a solid choice for those looking to score inconsistent yet quality waves.
