Still some surf in the water off ENE swell but onshore breezes continue to add lump and bump.

The onshore winds are not as strong as previous days but still light+ onshore. This keeps conditions textured/bumpy but manageable all day. Plenty of surf around though, so if can tuck in around some structure might find a few worthwhile waves. Better spots are still in the waist+ high range with chest high sets, so could be worth a look given the time of year.

6th Ave South Surf Guide

Nondescript beachbreak south of the Jax Pier pressure cooker, 8th Avenue South is probably just as consistent as any other beachbreak around here — consistently so-so. It will, however, accommodate a range of swells and tides, particularly N/NE swells on incoming, but isn't known for handling anything more than a foot or two overhead. It’s divinely spread out, though, with no rhyme or reason to its peaks. Many nor'easter drift sessions end up right around here. Read more
