(NOTE: Reviews may be edited by our content team for the purposes of ensuring accurate and relevant information)
“I lived on south padre island 20 years. when conditions are right i have seen world class surf,on average the surf is 2-3 stars. If this break had more consistent off shore winds it would be a solid 3 star break. an easy break for groms,and on those days a real challeng. water quality is good.accessability is very good for a small fee. Crowds, well it is the BEST surf spot in Texas and at times you can have it to yourself but they are comming!”
