Today

Still holding on with chest+ and up to shoulder high surf off local windswell. ESE/SE winds.

The direction shifts a little more SE allowing for more size to work in for PCB but this is still smaller than western beaches. Worth a look since we are in the summer season with breaks from Destin and further west up into the chest high range. Continued moderate to fresh ESE winds favoring the west side of piers/jetties for best conditions.

The Pumphouse Surf Guide

The Pumphouse is located midway between Sandpiper Cove and Two by Fours, where a pipe flushes the Destin Harbor with clean gulf water. Look for the low block building on the right after you pass Sandpiper Cove, and park along the road. When you get to the beach, you'll hopefully see a buoy marking where the outflow is. Otherwise, it's opposite the pumphouse, about 250 yards out. It's mostly a winter wave with a big outside take-off and hollow inside. Read more
