Fish Pass Jetty in Texas is a fairly exposed beach/Jetty break that has reasonably consistent surf. The best conditions for surfing are during the hurricane season. Offshore winds blow from the northwest. Waves more likely to be from local windswells than distant groundswells and the ideal wave direction is from the southeast. The beach break provides left and right handers. Good surf at all stages of the tide. When the surf is up, it can get quite busy in the water. Watch out for rips, obstacles, sharks and jellyfish.
