Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

Alabama Point in Alabama is an exposed breakwater break that delivers fairly consistent surf, especially during hurricane season when conditions align. The best waves form when southeast swells meet offshore winds from the north-northwest, producing rideable peaks. Local windswells are more common than groundswells, and the spot works well through all stages of the tide. It can draw a crowd when the surf is good. Be mindful of rips, localism, and sharks. Winter is the prime season for clean conditions, with April often offering the most reliable surf.
