Surf: Another outside reef at low tide with a decent high tide shorebreak if it’s big enough. The same conditions and facilities as Jensen Beach, but a little more consistent for waves and crowds. Surf: General: Although it lacks the form of Stuart Rocks, the Public Beach is often good when the Rocks is looking hungover, and it's almost always a few feet bigger. Big N-NE swells break over the reef way out back, and long walls roll in, sometimes all the way to the beach before closing out. The Public Beach breaks both ways, but long lefts are dominant on N swells, occasionally getting hollow on the inside. It's also surfable during stormy conditions, but be mindful of currents. Onshore winds really rip a good groundswell to shreds. Tides: Low, mid-tides Size: Head-2x overhead Wind: WNW Swell: NE Bottom: Reef and sand Paddling: Not bad on average days but can be challenging paddle on bigger days. Spot Rating: Overall average spot with easy access. There are better waves around but most of those are for well experienced surfers, so would look here if looking for an easier wave to surf. Access: Easy, but beware of break-ins. Crowds: Crowd Factor: Light to moderate. Local Vibe: None. Environment: Clean ocean water. Hazards: Watch currents and inside reef especially. Season: Fall-Spring, Hurricane
