Playa Linda in North Florida is an exposed beach break that has reliable surf, although summer tends to be mostly flat. The best wind direction is from the southwest. Most of the surf here comes from groundswells and the ideal swell angle is from the north northeast. Waves at the beach are both lefts and rights. The quality of the surf isn't affected by the tide. Even when there are waves, it's not likley to be crowded. Beware of sharks,aligators,spaceships.
