Surf Break: Cocoa Beach Pier

Cocoa Beach Pier in North Florida is a fairly exposed beach break that has quite consistent surf Works best in offshore winds from the west. Windswells are much more typical than groudswells and the best wave direction is from the southeast. The beach break provides left and right handers. Best around high tide. It's often crowded here. Beware of rips, man-made danger (buoys etc...) and sharks.

Secret spot? We can hide it!
