Today

Waist to shoulder high ESE trending SE windswell, biggest out west. NE trending E/ESE winds.

Fun surf around to start with manageable winds. Some drift and current to contend with but a nice morning to get some waves.

Stronger Bertha swell fills in today. Initially this will be from the ESE before trending more SE through the day. We'll get the most size out west but winds become an issue there. It'll be cleaner but smaller around PCB.

Expect the most size to show by the end of the day -- know your limits but take advantage of the surf while we have it.

Jetty East Surf Guide

Jetty East Condos is the Destin area's premier big-wave spot. It breaks best in winter when the winds are out of the NW after a passing cold front. Jetty East is surfed mostly in the six to eight-foot range, and on rare occasions it can climb to 10-feet. On the big days, you walk down toward the jetty to paddle out. There's a channel between the jetty and where the biggest waves break. After drifting east and catching the waves, you go in and walk back up the beach. Read more
