Thursday:  Size drops off a notch to the knee to lucky thigh range at 10 sec from the ENE.  Winds are onshore but light.

Looking ahead:  We are on the smaller side for Friday with 10 mph onshore winds.  Saturday will be a knee high wind swell with an occasional bigger set from a ENE background bump propping up the surf. For Sunday the wind swell component builds size just a bit as winds turn SE but nothing really good.  This trend continues into the start of next week.

ponce inlet surf break information

New Smyrna Beach's inlet is one of the most consistent surf spots in all of Florida. When most everywhere else is flat, there is usually a rideable wave at "the inlet".

While it is best on north swells, it can be equally as good with a straight east swell and wind direction. A hundred yards or more away from the rocks at the inet can also be fun on south swells. If it is a sizeable south swell, then you may want to head to the other side of NSB Inlet to Ponce Inlet in southernmost Daytona Beach, which is one of the best spots there is a solid south swell.

During the summer time I must warn you though, it does get extremely crowded with not only surfers of all skill levels, but also with tourists on boogie boards. If you surf here in the summer time

PLEASE be respectful of others in the water but beware of some of the more territorial locals

that have paid their dues and have been here for decades.

Thanks for checking out my report.

Stay Wet!
