Port O'Conner in Texas is an exposed beach/Jetty break that only works when conditions are just right. The best conditions for surfing are during the hurricane season. Offshore winds blow from the northwest. Most of the surf comes fis in the form of windswells and the best wave direction is from the southeast. The beach break provides left and right handers. Rarely crowded here. Beware of rips, obstacles, sharks and jellyfish.
